Procedure for Repealing Existing University Policies
- The Policy Sponsor or designee requesting the repeal of a University policy must complete the University Policy Repeal and Tracking Statement and submit it to the University Policies Website Coordinator.
- The Policies Website Coordinator sends the University Policy Repeal and Tracking Statement to the Office of the General Counsel (OGC) and the Compliance Office.
- The OGC and the Compliance Office review the Policy Repeal and Tracking Statement, consult with stakeholders as appropriate (including the Policy Sponsor), and assess whether the repeal is in the University’s best interest; for example, if the policy is no longer relevant or does not meet the definition of a policy.
- If the OGC and the Compliance Office recommend that the policy be repealed because it is in the University’s best interest, the General Counsel presents the policy proposed to be repealed and the University Policy Repeal Impact and Tracking Statement to the President for review and approval.
- If approved, the Compliance Office forwards the signed repeal and University Policy Repeal Impact and Tracking Statement to the University Policies Website Coordinator, who informs the Policy Sponsor.
- Upon receipt of the signed repeal, the Policies Website Coordinator archives the policy on the University Policies Website and removes it from active view. Notice of the repeal will be posted on the University Policies Website for 30 calendar days.
- The Policies Website Coordinator will add the repealed policy to the list of policies updated in the last year.
