University Policies
University Policies
University policies are those that have been approved by the University Policy Committee, reviewed by Academic Council and the President's Council, and approved by the President. Any person or committee may advance a policy to University Policy Committee for consideration. After the appropriate review and approval has been made, the University policy is promulgated to the faculty and staff of the University via an announcement in Creighton Today.
