Yerkes Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2016 6:56 AM To: Association of College and University Policy Administrators <[email protected]> Subject: RE:[acupa-l] acupa-l digest: July 27, 2016 Thanks to all for sharing so many great sample policies on policies in recent list servs. My question is this - what is the process generally used on your campus for the preparation and approval of these particular policies? If you have a central policy office, is it that office alone who prepares the policy? Who reviews and approves it? If you do not have a central policy office, where does responsibility for the policy on policies preparation reside? Was the policy developed by committee, or by leadership? Who manages the maintenance and enforcement of this policy? Many thanks for any guidance you can share.

We include very high level procedures in our policy and ask policy owners to maintain detailed procedures on departmental or college websites. We can make changes to procedures in policy w/o making other adjustments. Thanks, Heather From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bartlett, Deborah Sent: Friday, July 22, 2016 5:47 PM To: Association of College and University Policy Administrators <[email protected]> Subject: Re:[acupa-l] Policy on Procedures Anthony, We publish our administrative procedures both in the same documents with the policies and without. Our "policy on policies" covers the review and approval processes applicable to both. You may view this policy at: http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/EPM/EP5_Policy_Approval_and_Distribution.htm We often update procedures without adjusting the policy. However, if both are included in the same section, the revision date applies to the entire document. The revision process is the same, but the level of administration approval required for procedural-only revisions is different than for revisions that include policy changes, as indicated in EP5 above. For further reference as to how we write and organize our policies and procedures, you're welcome to take a look at any of the three administrative manuals my office publishes for WSU, at: * http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/BPPM/01.01_Table_of_Contents.htm * http://www.wsu.edu/manuals_forms/HTML/SPPM/1_Introduction-Organization/1.01_SPPM_TOC--By_Chapter.htm * http://public.wsu.edu/~forms/HTML/EPM/EP00b_Intro_and_Table_of_Contents--topical.htm (I'm sending you the link to the topical index for our Executive Policy Manual, organized by policy function.)

Does anyone have a specific policy on procedures? If you have procedures embedded in a policy (like Cornell) do you ever update procedures without adjusting the policy? If you have procedures in a separate document (like Minnesota) do you have specific instructions for managing procedure updates? I haven't been able to find anything specific to procedures looking around.
