OAA Policies and Procedures Handbook

This handbook contains the policies and procedures promulgated by the Office of Academic Affairs. It is updated every spring or in response to a change to the Rules of the University Faculty and Bylaws of the Board of Trustees. In the 2011 revision, policy language contained in volume 2 was made into stand-alone policies. The remaining material was moved to volume 1.
