At Ohio State, we have a few (up to 10, maybe...we're inventorying them this month....) policies that require board approval, either by law or historical tradition. We've been working to eliminate board approval of policies for the last 8 years. As we update our policies, those that are approved by the board will be noted in the "history" section of our template. It hasn't been noted in the past, and we had to rely on long-term folks just to know what needed board approval and what didn't.
All university-wide policies, board approved or not, are managed by designated Responsible Offices. The university policy process is managed by the policy office, which is part of our Office of University Compliance and Integrity. -Eunice Eunice Hornsby, Ph.D. Policy and Training Director The Ohio State University Office of University Compliance and Integrity 1543 N.

Please also include in your response whether the Board" policies are managed by the policy office or a Board office. Thank you for your feedback. Best.
