Responsibilities of Faculty on Educational Policies Committee Faculty (and administrators) on Educational Policies Committee (EPC) oversee the educational programs of the College for which academic credit is granted. Members of EPC will, therefore, endeavor to accomplish the following:

1. Recommend to the faculty any addition, or removal, of a course or program to, or from, the curriculum of the College.
2. Review other curricular changes proposed by departments.
3. Make recommendations to the faculty on matters of educational policy.
4. Advise the Provost and other administrators on matters of educational policy.
5. Review applications from departments for open tenure-track faculty lines and review proposals to add, move, or eliminate lines and advise the Provost when lines are assigned to departments.
6. Annually review and update curricular sections of the College catalogue to reflect faculty and committee decisions during the previous year.

Composition of Educational Policies Committee

At least eight (8) voting members from the faculty will be appointed for service on EPC by FEC. At least one member will be a library faculty. In addition, FEC recommends that non-voting representatives from appropriate administrative offices (including the Registrar and Associate Provost for Curriculum and Faculty Development) serve (ex officio) on EPC. FEC also recommends that, when possible, at least one student – selected by the Student Commission – serves on EPC (note: the student member(s) will have a single vote on the committee).
