FW: Request for Review: Proposed Revisions to Regulations from Section 300 of the UNC Policy Manual
by Andrew T Tripp 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

Senior Lawyers: I’m writing on two fronts related to this request for comment that went out on Friday to your chancellors. First, be advised of this request that went to your chancellors on Friday regarding Regs in Section 300 following “Festivus”. Second, some time ago I noted that we are working on improving how our messages to campus senior teams are transmitted and by whom. Good news and bad news on that front: first, we are underway on developing something called a “Senior Team +” List that we’ll be rolling out soon likely from President Hans’ Office. We aim to standardize who sends what, to whom, and when. Our tech team is on the case. The bad news is it’s not a thing until it’s done, and we’re not yet done on the technical piece. In the meantime, please be aware of this note from Michael Vollmer that I’m sharing the old-fashioned way. Andrew Tripp From: J. Michael Vollmer <jmvollmer(a)northcarolina.edu> Date: Friday, March 22, 2024 at 2:47 PM To: unc_chancellors(a)lists.northcarolina.edu <unc_chancellors(a)lists.northcarolina.edu> Cc: Andrew T Tripp <attripp(a)northcarolina.edu>, Darryl Bass <dbass(a)northcarolina.edu>, Brad C Trahan <bctrahan(a)northcarolina.edu>, Mary Griffin Inscoe <mginscoe(a)northcarolina.edu>, Christopher S. Chiron <cschiron(a)northcarolina.edu> Subject: Request for Review: Proposed Revisions to Regulations from Section 300 of the UNC Policy Manual Chancellors – Attached you will find a cover memo, proposed redline revisions to various regulations relating to Section 300 of the UNC Policy Manual, a summary of regulations with changes, and a comment tracker document for your review and feedback. These regulations relate to the ongoing policy review project and follow the BOG’s adoption of updates to the Policies in Section 300 from February. These updates incorporate your institution’s initial review of the Section 300 regulations from last Fall. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to let us know .
