System policy update: 15 changes take effect

The Office of Policy and Efficiency (OPE) has announced changes to 15 administrative policy statements (APS) from the areas of academic affairs, administrative/general, fiscal, human resources and information technology – including 11 policy revisions; one new policy concerning data governance; and three APSs that have been transitioned to more appropriate fiscal or payroll procedural statements.  These changes, approved by President Bruce Benson, took effect Jan. 17.

Overall, these actions – in addition to the net reductions of APSs last July – have reduced the total number of current system APSs to 85.  For more detailed information, go to http://www.cu.edu/policies/aps-changes.html.
