Good afternoon Alyssa, About 5 years ago, we worked with our faculty governance group to convert, for lack of another word, their senate policies into administrative policies, which is a combination of academic policies and operational policies.
These academic policies go through the same review and approval process except that there is more intense consultation with our faculty governance group(s). The template for these policies is the same as for our HR and Research policies (for example). The responsible University officer is the SVP of Academic Administration and Provost, because she has the operational responsibility to ensure that we can support the policies (tools, resources, etc.). This is the long way of saying that now they are housed together.
