Minors Policy (Decommissioned): The (Academic) Minors Policy has been approved to be decommissioned by the Senior Policy Council (SPC).
Academic Affairs Policies and Protocols Policy (New): The purpose of this new policy is to establish clear and concise standards for the development, approval, decommissioning, and revision of Academic Affairs policies and protocols. It will apply to the Storrs, Regional and UConn Health campuses, and set the standard for all Academic Affairs units (i.e., school/college, campus, department, division, and other units therein). This policy aims to ensure that all formatting and presentation of policies is consistent, a complete set of Academic Affairs policies exists, and practices used in all Academic Affairs units and UConn campuses are transparent.
