Since DCMI doesn't seem to have defined a distinct element for
commmittee-member*, you may want to see if there is another metadata
namespace with some or all of the additional elements that you need,
and add it.

IOW if you are choosing only between the QDC and DCTERMS namespaces,
you'll have to invent your own nonstandard field either way, and then
how will any harvester be able to interpret it properly?

You might wish to take a look at the ETD-MS schema:
http://www.ndltd.org/standards/metadata/etd-ms-v1.1.html
but you'd have to write your own crosswalk and create a local
namespace for it in DSpace.  (Unless someone has already done that,
and would be willing to share.)

* A quick string-search of the DCTERMS specification found zero
  occurrences of the word "committee".
