Deena At Memorial University, the policy systems a communications plan be included in the policy submission that goes forward for approval. These are generally very brief and we offer policy sponsors some guidance in preparing that: http://www.mun.ca/policy/framework/toolkit/communications.php . By way of explanation, the Gazette is our University newspaper, which is now entirely online; the MUN Today is an online newsfeed; and Newsline is a University-wide listserv which delivers email announcements about many subjects, not only policy developments, daily. This feature, of having a communications plan for every policy is intended to tailor the messaging to the applicable audience for the policy subject matter. I mentioned they are brief, usually three to four sentences.

Thanks to everyone for sharing. We have a related issue about policy announcements, and would be curious about how, specifically, campuses "announce" new policies or policy revisions. We have a feed on our website of latest actions, and on high profile policies such as campus carry or sexual assault, there is an presidential announcement via email. But we're struggling with the most effective way to communicate revisions on some of the lower profile/operational type policies, such as cash handling, etc. Deena Merrill Policy Manager Operations Support Division of Vice President for Finance and Administration 940-565-4535 Replying to Messages: Replying (using Reply) to an ACUPA-L e-mail will distribute your message to the ENTIRE list of members.
