2. Periodic Review of Current Policies
Policies should be periodically reviewed by the units responsible for each subject matter and revised as appropriate. To assist the University in keeping policies up to date, the University Policy & Rules Office will create a schedule and plan to promote the systematic review of each policy and will notify the individual responsible for each policy when it is due for review. If the policy is still necessary and accurate without revision, the University Policy & Rules Office will request the appropriate individual(s) to confirm its continued purpose and accuracy.
