3.20 UNDERGRADUATE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Effective:
August 29, 1994
PURPOSE
To specify the process for the formulation, review and
dissemination of undergraduate policies and procedures.
AUTHORITY/SOURCE
Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs
POLICY
The Undergraduate Policies and Procedures Manual is
considered the authoritative manual for the official
University policies and procedures for the governance
of undergraduate programs. These policies and procedures
are the basic guidelines and minimum requirements for
undergraduate program development, implementation, and
evaluation. All undergraduate programs including cooperative
and affiliated programs must conform to these guidelines
and requirements. The Office of Undergraduate Studies
is responsible for the maintenance and distribution
of the Undergraduate Policies and Procedures Manual.
The Undergraduate Council is the body of the Faculty
Senate responsible for the initiation and development
of recommendations for undergraduate policies and procedures
in consultation with members of the faculty, Council
of Deans and the Provost.
PROCEDURE
Undergraduate Council recommendations approved by the
Faculty Senate are forwarded to the Provost, who seeks
the review of the Dean of Undergraduate Studies and
the Council of Deans prior to concurring or dissenting.
If revision is desired, the policy statement with suggested
revision is returned to the Faculty Senate.
After
completing this process, the policy or procedure is
officially entered into the Undergraduate Policies and
Procedures Manual by the Dean of Undergraduate Studies.
Compliance is monitored by the academic deans, the Dean
of Undergraduate Studies and the Faculty Senate Undergraduate
Council.
