Today, October 23, 2025, UVU's President’s Council approved the following policy actions:
Addition to Policy Manual Structure
Marketing and Communications 800-Level Section for Policy Manual
| Policy Sponsor | Kara Schneck |
| Policy Steward | Matt Chambers, Josh Cook |
| Requested Approval | Create a new 800-level section in the Policy Manual for Marketing and Communications. |
The Policy Office and Marketing Communications recommend establishing a standalone 800-level section to align with the overall policy manual structure
and provide UMC consistent visibility alongside other divisions (100–700). Because
UMC governs communications, branding, messaging, institutional reputation, and other
functions with university-wide impact, these areas merit a clearly defined section
of their own. Therefore, we recommend that an 800-level subsection be opened in the Policy Manual and be named
“Marketing and Communications."
Information Item
Policy 603 Academic Program Review
Policy 603 has been pulled from the policy process. Pending legislation and USHE policy
are uncertain at this time,
making an accurate update to this policy challenging. The policy owners will assess reopening the policy for revision at an appropriate
time.
