I would enjoy a discussion on what types of policy processes work best for 
certain institutional governance structures, or how does an institution go 
about determining what type of policy process works best for its governance 
model.

Dear Colleagues,

The 2014 ACUPA Conference Planning Committee is springing into action to 
prepare for our partnership with EACUBO's Annual 
Meeting<http://www.eacubo.org/programs-and-events/annual-meeting.html> October 
19 - 22 in Orlando. The Presentation Subcommittee will issue a formal Call for 
Proposals next week, but before we do that, we would like to ask each of you 
what topics, specific or general, you really want to hear about. Your responses 
will help the Planning Committee select the best presentations possible for our 
conference

Please reply to post your wish list in this forum. What policy topics, 
processes, or emerging issues do you wish we could discuss (and maybe solve 
once and for all)?

If you would prefer for your suggestions to go directly to me rather than the 
entire listserv, just respond to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> and 
your ideas will still be counted.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Christine Tata, on behalf of the 2014 ACUPA Conference Planning 
Committee/Presentation Subcommittee

My interests are:

Metrics...more than just "how many."  Can we get to "effectiveness" measures?
Using existing institutional data to inform policy development, implementation, 
and improvement, e.g., audit findings, investigation findings
Developing policy sponsors/writers at our institutions...curriculum, resources, 
what is effective
Taking the policy process beyond approval to implementation, communication, 
change management, and adoption of new practices

I hope to be able to come this year!!

Yes, please, metrics, metrics and more metrics.  That seems to be the mantra 
these days.
Also, Compliance/Policy advisory committees:  from membership to 
responsibilities to strategic planning.

Lots of Higher Education institutions are establishing a central compliance 
function.  So maybe something on the interactions between compliance and 
policies and adapting best practices from the private sector to higher 
education.

A far a metrics are concerned, the management of analytics is a policy concern 
to the extent that far greater numbers of people on campus are accessing and 
using data than ever before for a myriad of reasons beyond traditional IR 
reporting and institutional management. The expansion of both data sources and 
end users requires serious consideration while it can still be relatively 
controlled.

My interests are:

Metrics...more than just "how many."  Can we get to "effectiveness" measures?
Using existing institutional data to inform policy development, implementation, 
and improvement, e.g., audit findings, investigation findings
Developing policy sponsors/writers at our institutions...curriculum, resources, 
what is effective
Taking the policy process beyond approval to implementation, communication, 
change management, and adoption of new practices

I hope to be able to come this year!!

Christine,

Right now, I am particularly interested in ethics topics; Title IX and Clery 
Act compliance; federal grant compliance/requirements; accreditation 
requirements; employment policies. Although many policy offices seem to be 
focused on process, ours is also very involved with product.  I know we're not 
alone in this, especially in the review stages, so research techniques would be 
of interest as well.  Of course, since these areas are what I'm interested in,  
I might decide to submit a proposal ... Because that's how I learn.

Thanks for gathering input, Christine. Good luck to you and the Planning
Committee.
1) A big topic that I think is bubbling up on many campuses would be
the development of policies around the use of social media. This may be
too specific for what you're looking for, but with the scarcity of
information on this, it might be helpful to have some information about
this with all its complexity.
2) In that line of thinking, perhaps something about the ACA and its
possible impact on HEIs' policies might be of interest.
3) And a more general interest might be- how to work (enter, develop,
create) policies in a "policy-less" institution. This could be creating
the whole structure of development of policies, but also might be
helpful on how to get the buy-in and the "pay attention" to policies in
a place that relied on "that's what we've always done, why do we need
policies."
Hope this helps.

At KU, enforcement and compliance is largely left to the units who own the 
policies. We have a coordinated policy program with decentralized policy 
management. Because of this structure and because we have a well-populated 
policy library, I would like to explore functional topics: how do we develop 
and implement a policy review process that promotes the role of the policy 
owner; how to bring in the last 10% of units into the policy library; how to 
improve (or use technology to improve) the policy development process; what 
policy library tools to assist visitors in finding what they are seeking; how 
to use analytics to improve policy library functionality.

Those are the things that are on my mind these days.

All great ideas and comments! At CSU I also am involved in both content and 
process, so I would echo what others have said about having our program deal 
with both.



It's the available technology solutions that are of most interest to me right 
now. Are you using any workflow? How are you tracking expiry/review dates and 
what do you do when they come up? Do you maintain your own online policy 
library or does an external entity (vendor or university IT dept) do that for 
you? Have you considered hosted (vendor provided) solutions?



I would also really like to hear more about the interactions between your 
policy operations and your counsel's office. To what extent do you go looking 
for areas in which you need more/better policies, vs. waiting for someone to 
come to you? Are you interested in a presentation about bridging the gap 
between counsel and the policy administrator?



Thanks!

Subject: [acupa-l] Input needed: What do you most want to know?



Dear Colleagues,



The 2014 ACUPA Conference Planning Committee is springing into action to 
prepare for our partnership with EACUBO's Annual 
Meeting<http://www.eacubo.org/programs-and-events/annual-meeting.html> October 
19 - 22 in Orlando. The Presentation Subcommittee will issue a formal Call for 
Proposals next week, but before we do that, we would like to ask each of you 
what topics, specific or general, you really want to hear about. Your responses 
will help the Planning Committee select the best presentations possible for our 
conference



Please reply to post your wish list in this forum. What policy topics, 
processes, or emerging issues do you wish we could discuss (and maybe solve 
once and for all)?



If you would prefer for your suggestions to go directly to me rather than the 
entire listserv, just respond to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]%3cmailto:[email protected]>>
 and your ideas will still be counted.



Thanks for sharing your thoughts!



Christine Tata, on behalf of the 2014 ACUPA Conference Planning 
Committee/Presentation Subcommittee

Hello, policy wonks.

Has the possibility of adopting a policy organization system standard ever been 
discussed? If so, what was the outcome?

For example, Joshua's Cornell policies are organized into eight categories, or 
volumes<http://www.dfa.cornell.edu/treasurer/policyoffice/policies/volumes/index.cfm>.

Michelle's UM policies are organized into either Governance or six categories 
of Administrative<http://policy.umn.edu/Policies/index.htm>.

My institution is looking at creating/adopting a policy organization system, 
and would be interested to know if there is a policy organization system 
standard, similar to how libraries adopted one of two organization system 
standards<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Dewey_and_Library_of_Congress_subject_classification>
 for library books.

I normally ask replies on the listserv be sent to me only so as to not clog 
everyone's inbox, but this one might be good for public discussion.   Thanks 
for your considerations in this matter.  Best regards, Rich

Hello Richard,

At least for public universities, a policy organization system is often built 
to comply with state regulations as well as university-grown policy programs.  
In Washington State the University of Washington is required to maintain 
various policies as Washington Administrative Code (WAC) rules.  These have a 
statute-mandated path to completion.  While other topics are exempt from this 
rule-making structure and these have other locally-grown policy structures and 
paths to completion that are specific to the institution or university system.

Consequently, I'm not sure standardization is possible, although there may be 
some universities or collages that could follow a standard model.  I'd guess is 
that one would need to look at systems based on whether they were public or 
private and then consider the standard divisions based on the types of degrees 
offered (which often indicate the size and scope of the policies):  
Baccalaureate, Master's, Doctoral, 2-year, Research, etc.

In the end the policy system must meet the demands of the individual 
institution and/or university system and these may be unique.

Kind regards,


Rebecca

Hi Richard.  I'm too new to ACUPA to recall if there has been a discussion on a 
standardized policy organization system (however, that would certainly make an 
interesting panel discussion at an ACUPA or EACUBO meeting!)

At FIU, we organized [and numbered] our policies by broad categories (somewhat 
similar to Michelle's @ UMN) and in an effort to mirror the Dewey Decimal 
Classifications.   See here.  http://policies.fiu.edu/browse.php?l=toc

Hi Richard,
This is a great question!

We created our categories to group logical policies for the end user.
While they roughly align with a VP, there is no one "pure category" (a
category = a VP).  So, for example, in the Finance category we also include
policies that are financial in nature, but are driven by the VP for
Research (Effort Certification) or VP for the Foundation (Accepting Gifts).

If there are policies that logically fit in more than one categories, we
just repeat the listing.  They would also drive to the single policy.

Our users typically use the search functionality first (greatest
percentage).  If they aren't using a term that is in the policy they are
seeking, they would then move to one of the other search options (by
category, by subcategory, alphabetical listing.)  Of course, if all else
fails they could call us.  More often than not, the first search option is
the winner.

I'm guessing the biggest difference we would have across our institutions
would be triggered by the level of refinement of the categories/volumes.
We have financial policies in Finance.  It might work best for our
counterparts to go right to what we would refer to as subcategories just to
skip a step (Budget, Purchasing, etc.)  We also place all the more unusual
ones under a single heading (Administration and Operations), just so that
we didn't create a lot more categories.

I tend to lean towards Rebecca's standard - it may not be possible to have
a single standard, but rather adopt one that fits your organization.

Best of luck,
Michele

Hi Richard,

I think Rebecca's answer (mirrored by Michele) really speaks to your query: "In 
the end the policy system must meet the demands of the individual institution 
and/or university system and these may be unique. "  Hence, there are many 
"standards" that you'll find out there, as you have probably seen in visiting 
our many institutional policy web sites.  But with consideration for each 
institution's history, culture, etc.-each institution arrives at the policy 
organization that fits their needs and those of their users.  As you note, two

Susan,
You're is an interesting mix.  It looks like you used business topic for
all (as your major category), with the exception of one audience category
(faculty).  Was this politically driven?  Or that none of the policies
contained within fit into one of the business topics?  I ask because we
have similar challenges, but policies that might be considered largely for
faculty (e.g., conflict of interest) would be in a different section (in
this case, a subset of administration/operation called compliance.) Our
conflict of interest applies well beyond faculty.  When you have those
situations, do you list common policies under multiple categories?

Hi Michele,

This was, indeed, politically driven. It allows the Faculty to view only what 
is specific to them. We do list documents in multiple locations for ease of the 
end user. In our document storage library  we keep them strictly by department. 
That is all behind the scenes. We have had this structure for over 15 years 
(with some tweaking along the way)...it's due for some adjustments now however 
we are short on technical resources.

Hope this helps!
Sue

Hi Richard,

I think Rebecca's answer (mirrored by Michele) really speaks to your query: "In 
the end the policy system must meet the demands of the individual institution 
and/or university system and these may be unique. "  Hence, there are many 
"standards" that you'll find out there, as you have probably seen in visiting 
our many institutional policy web sites.  But with consideration for each 
institution's history, culture, etc.-each institution arrives at the policy 
organization that fits their needs and those of their users.  As you note, two 
of the "premier" policy web sites, Cornell and Minnesota, are in fact very 
different yet are very effective for their respective user community.

Hello, policy wonks.

Has the possibility of adopting a policy organization system standard ever been 
discussed? If so, what was the outcome?

For example, Joshua's Cornell policies are organized into eight categories, or 
volumes<http://www.dfa.cornell.edu/treasurer/policyoffice/policies/volumes/index.cfm>.

Michelle's UM policies are organized into either Governance or six categories 
of Administrative<http://policy.umn.edu/Policies/index.htm>.

My institution is looking at creating/adopting a policy organization system, 
and would be interested to know if there is a policy organization system 
standard, similar to how libraries adopted one of two organization system

Richard,

This is  a very timely subject for me, because we have been talking a great 
deal about our policy volumes at Cornell.

The general conclusion is that a "volume" system is basically obsolete, and 
remains only as a vestigial reminder of the hard copy "three-ring binders" of 
policies that we had before the Internet. We have found their existence 
sometimes confusing, and try to direct people to the "A to Z index" or to the 
search box in the center of our home page. The main problem with a volume 
system, or any static system of organization, is that many policies might 
logically fall into more than one of the volume categories, and people, 
therefore, don't know in which volume to look.

By July 1, 2015, we will have designed a new policy website. We are trying to 
think of better ways to get people to the information they need. In addition to 
the "front and center" search tool, which will not go away, one of our ideas is 
a question box that produces a selection of answers generated from keywords in 
the question.  This would be a similar tool to, for instance, the support pages 
on most software sites, such as Microsoft's. Another idea is a "How Do I" pull 
down menu, with, perhaps, the twenty most common things people come to us to 
do. Pulling down to, for instance, "How do I take time off?" will get the user 
immediately to the policy that deals with leaves.

So I think we're going toward spending our very scarce resources on a more 
useful web presence, rather than any particular static organization system.  
But of course that's just us.  This is a very interesting thread, and I am 
interested in everyone's priorities and opinions.
