Policy development and approval processes are outlined in the recently approved Policy Development, Approval and Communication policy. One key change is the use of a comment period during the policy development process, giving the campus community an opportunity to comment on policies before they become final. A working group is also developing a new policy library that organizes University-wide policies by type for easier reference. Watch for more information regarding this resource later this fall.

The Food Service Exclusivity Policy has also been approved and is posted as part of the University-wide policy library. This policy outlines changes to Sodexo exclusivity for catering services and provides alternatives for on-campus catering.
