Ex Officio:
Chair of the Faculty Senate
Term in Office:
Staggered two years
Functions:
This committee reviews and advises the administration regarding proposals for new and revised policies propagated through (1) the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost and (2) the University Policy Review Committee (UPRC) chaired by the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The chair of the Policy Committee also serves as the Faculty Senate's representative on the UPRC. The Policy Committee solicits input in the review process from other faculty members including Senators and the General Faculty Council.
