Faculty Policies Committee

FPC Faculty Handbook revisions form. Please use this form for making recommended updates to the faculty handbook. This is the form that is referenced in section 2 of the handbook. 

During the 2025-2026 academic year, the committee reviewed the faculty handbook and made revisions to reduce redundancies and add clarity. Those changes have been shared with faculty for feedback and ultimately, for a vote at the faculty meeting. FPC shared a form with faculty for feedback on these changes: Faculty Handbook Revision Feedback Form.

FPC also shared these two documents: Faculty Version Faculty Handbook Overview for FPC; Faculty Version UL Faculty Handbook 23-24. The first is a spreadsheet showing what was removed and what was modified. The second is a google doc version of the faculty handbook with the revisions. The revisions are not in redline; the spreadsheet is meant to show what the changes are. If you want to compare documents, you can upload the PDF of the handbook to google docs, then use the Compare Document tool with the revised version. Open the primary document, go to Tools > Compare documents, select the second file from your Drive, and click "Compare"
