关于行政政策手册

This online Policy Manual provides convenient access to newbb电子平台's official policy statements.

The Ohio 大学政策 Manual is an organic document, always in transition. With 208 policies currently in place (and some two dozen proposed new policies in process), our goal of review and revision on a five-year cycle means that in a typical month, 将更新四项政策.

The Policy creation, revision, and elimination process is established by Policy 01.001、“政策准备”." The Executive 工作人员 Policy Committee authorizes active revision of existing policies and creation of new policies. Drafts and the Reviewers' comments on those drafts are published through the password-protected Review site -- see the link for "Active Index" at the lower-right of that page or the policy manual home page.

The formal review and approval process culminates with approval by the President. 批准后, the Office of Information Technology places the new or newly revised policy on the Web site, 并发送纸质更新.

为什么格式不同?

政策01的修订.001 and the associated Policy Drafting Guidelines have typically included changes in the format specified for policies. 进一步, 在他们的十月, 2005, 会议, the Trustees adopted a resolution specifying that the President has final approval authority for all Policy statements, 所以签名块必须改变. 在线策略主要有两类:

  • Policies that were approved after October 1, 2002 — their online versions are official.
     
  • Policies that were approved before October 1, 2002 — their online versions are not official.

Policies in both categories remain unchanged until their replacements are approved in the latest format, 但以下情况除外:

  • 第一类中的策略, 谁的在线版本是官方的, will be updated without going through the full review and approval process specified in Policy 01.001 only as specified in the Policy Drafting Guidelines' section titled, “批准后的政策变更."
     
  • 第二类政策, 谁的在线版本不是官方的, will be updated without going through the full review and approval process specified in Policy 01.001 only as specified in the Policy Drafting Guidelines' section titled, “批准后的政策变更." This includes changes to correct any remaining typographical errors, 这样他们就能与保险单上的签名相匹配. (Many of these older policies' online versions are the result of scanning the signed hardcopy originals and using Optical Character Recognition software to transform the scanned images into editable text files.)

保单生效日期

自去年10月以来批准的每一项政策, 2002, has an explicit "effective on" date field in the signature block at the top. 较旧的保单有“发布日期”," which was the effective date unless explicitly stated to the contrary.

根据HB 187, 7月1日起, 2007, policies affecting the employment of classified staff take effect no sooner than 30 days after their approval. 这在签名块中明确地指出. 7月1日前批准的所有政策, 2007, 更新后就没有了, were confirmed by the Board of Trustees as being in effect on July 1, 2007, 并持续有效，直到更新或消除.

根据SB 3, 截至9月17日, 2014年(之后有6个月的宽限期), policies are to be filed with the Legislative Support Commission, just as the Ohio Revised Code and other state agency rules and regulations are. LSC系统需要更改格式, and also cannot have an effective date sooner than ten days after filing. OIT will file the change with the LSC only after the hardcopy signed by the President is in hand, so the effective date will typically be about two weeks after approval, 除非HB 187适用.

委员会和专责小组的历史

1995年至2002年, the manual was provided online just for convenient reference, with the hardcopy manual (distributed to more than 360 people) being the official version. 从4月, 2001, 到9月, 2002, the Task Force on Policy and Procedure reviewed the existing policies with the appropriate departments, 建议改变一些政策, 以及消灭其他的. In addition to this review, the results of their work included a revised version of Policy 01.001, “制定政策和程序,这是一个详细的迭代, 互动审查和批准流程, and also included specifications for a new format for policy statements that was optimized for online reading.

从2002年秋天开始, the online manual has been official; hardcopy publication was restricted to the Executive 工作人员 Officers, 包括总统, 执行副校长兼教务长, 总法律顾问, 以及大学档案管理员. 除了那些个人, no more hardcopy Policy updates were published by the Office of Information Technology. 在2011年的冬天, 硬拷贝出版进一步受到限制, 致大学人力资源, 奥尔登图书馆, 以及每个地区的校园图书馆.

从10月1日起, 2002, 到11月30日, 2005, the membership of the Policy and Procedure Review Committee ("PPRC") was established through the Committee on Committees, based on the minimum membership specified in the then-current version of Policy 01.001.

政策01的新修订版本.001, “制定政策和程序,，于2月21日获得批准, 2006; it specified a different signature block and some other modest formatting changes, as well as a revised process for the formal review and approval of new and revised policies, and with PPRC membership established directly by Presidential appointment.

政策01的新修订版本.001、“政策准备”,，于1月25日获得批准, 2011; in addition to format and process changes, it replaced the PPRC with a "Policy Editorial Review Committee" ("PERC"). The chair and members of the PERC were appointed, but the committee never met. In May, 2013, the policy was revised again, removing the PERC.

学分

The online Policy Manual was originally created and maintained by Linda Lawson and Kathy Llewellyn. Kristina Schnelle updated the format and content of many of the policies' HTML files while working as a student employee of Computer Services. 自2002年以来, 大部分HTML文件的更新都是由Dick Piccard完成的, initially as part of his work with the Policy and Procedure Review Committee.
