Insitutional Policies

Institutional Policy Process Council (University Policies)

University policies utilize the established Policy Process Council (PPC) which is a collaborative and representative body that discusses new and revised institutional policies as part of a comprehensive shared governance and administrative review process. While having no policy making authority, the Council contributes to broad scrutiny of policy drafts to ensure a university policy does not infringe upon or contradict other policies or negatively impact other units across campus.

The Facilitator of the Policy Process Council ensures that university policies are reviewed and that the review and approval process is followed, documented, and communicated.
