Charge
The Educational Policies Committee studies educational
issues of concern to the Academic Senate and
is the standing committee that recommends educational
policies to the Executive Committee. The Committee
provides a forum for high-level discussion
and development of Academic Senate Policy,
including its effect on faculty and students.
The discussions include the viewpoint of students,
CIOs and union representatives.
The Educational Policies Committee researches
issues as required and writes background and/or
position papers where appropriate. The Committee
may pass general recommendations to other Senate
committees, or work with them on more detailed
implementation or technical issues. New or revised
educational policies of the Academic Senate pass
through the Educational Policies Committee. These
may include policies to be implemented either
locally or at the state level, suggested positions
on proposed policies or changes in existing policies,
and responses to assignments given by the President
or Executive Committee.
