Proposed Policies
The Marshall University Board of Governors periodically approves new polices or amends existing policies controlling Marshall University. In order to ensure all constituencies have had an opportunity to comment on such actions, notices of proposed rulemaking are distributed to certain members of the Marshall community, including constituency representatives to the Marshall University Board of Governors and others identified in the Board’s “Policy on Rulemaking.”
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking by the Marshall University Board of Governors
On December 17, 2020, the Marshall University Board of Governors approved a resolution initiating the rulemaking process for the proposed policies listed below.
Academic Affairs Policies
MUBOG AA-12 Academic Dishonesty
MUBOG AA-31 Emeritus Status for Retired Professionals
The Board of Governors meeting agenda item containing the proposed policies with descriptions of the proposed action on each is available by clicking on the policies listed above.
Upon the Board’s approval of the resolution for these policies, a comment period opened. While the comment period for this policy was due to close on January 18, 2021, due to the University’s holiday break, comments will be accepted until February 1, 2021. During the comment period, members of constituency groups and the public may comment on the proposed policy changes. If no substantive comments are received for any individual policy, all actions for that policy will be considered approved as final. If substantive comments are received for a policy, then that proposed policy, comments, and responses will be presented to the Board for approval at a subsequent meeting.
Comments should be sent via paper mail only (USPS mail or campus mail) to:
