Committee Service

The Academic Policy Group facilitates the development of effective and broadly applicable academic policies and processes through three primary functions:

• Codifying and assessing existing university academic policies and operational standards
• Gathering information and insight from across the university and from external sources to inform policy development
• Evaluating potential unintended consequences of new policies and policy changes

Policies are developed with substantive input and insight from group members (faculty, academic administrators, and operational administrators) and must comply with legal and regulatory requirements (including U.S. Department of Education, NYSED, and MSCHE). Policies are designed to balance the desire for cross-university consistency with the needs of the individual colleges and their constituents and administrative units.

Academic requirements and standards are represented by college representatives, and operational needs are represented by key administrators from across the university. Internal policies must comply with external requirements and defensible within accepted higher education practices. Upon completion, policies are made accessible to the university community and the public.

Charge
The Academic Policy Group receives proposals for new academic policy and examines extant academic policy in order to develop recommendations for these policies for review by the Provost’s Council, Executive Deans, and General Counsel. It evaluates and documents policies that exist in practice but are not yet codified, aligns policy across colleges, and works to identify and rectify policy gaps that affect compliance with federal guidelines. Committee members engage with and advise on proposals, providing their perspective on the impact these proposals will have on their work across the university. 

Decision Making
The group makes operational and implementation decisions pertaining to existing policy and practice; makes recommendations to the Executive Deans, Provost’s Council, and Provost (and President's Leadership Team) for new academic affairs and academic affairs–related policy and practice. Some academic policies are subject to board review.

Chaired by the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, the Large Academic Affairs Committee (LAAC) brings together the membership of the Small Academic Affairs Committee and the PO Coordinating Group. As a group of peers, the committee will discuss, assess, and make collaborative decisions on academic initiatives, processes, or operational procedures related to the work of the academic units and share solutions to common operational problems connected with core academic functions at the university. The committee will be consulted in and regularly informed on the proposal, development, and approval of new policies and procedures related to the academic enterprise. This work is critical to the success of the academic units and is directly related to successful recruitment, enrollment, and retention. Finally, the committee is committed to this work being grounded in our values, most recently re-articulated in the “Pillars of Fearless Progress,” including practices of social justice detailed in our University Climate Assessment. The Large Academic Affairs Committee meets monthly.

In carrying out its responsibilities, the committee shall:

• Facilitate frequent and enhance necessary conversations between the colleges and central offices (e.g., the Registrar’s Office, International Student and Scholar Services, Student Success) as academic policies and practices are developed and implemented
• Recognize the colleges’ distinct local practices, diverse needs, and unique cultures while supporting more uniform practices to achieve greater consistency and continuity university-wide
• Promote transparency and collaboration in decision making
• Regularly review pertinent data and other information
• Maintain appropriate flexibility to address changing conditions and provide reasonable responses to operational challenges

Decision Making: The LAAC makes operational and implementation decisions pertaining to existing academic affairs and academic affairs–related policy and practice and makes recommendations to the Executive Deans, Provost’s Council, and Provost on new academic affairs practices.

Guided by The New School’s mission, vision, and strategic plan, and drawing on expertise from across the university, the University Curriculum Committee (UCC) advises the Provost on curricular matters.

The UCC receives its mandate from the Provost:

• To provide feedback and recommendations for proposals for new academic programs and substantive modifications to existing programs
• To contribute to the development and enhancement of cross-college curricular offerings (e.g., minors, dual degrees, and other university-wide initiatives)
• To help advance university-wide curricular projects as they arise

The work of the UCC must be reported back by committee members to their respective areas, and reciprocally, UCC members should bring feedback and comments from their respective areas to the UCC.

Please note that, in addition to the recommendations of this committee, the Provost’s Office may consult and seek input from additional faculty in the community with content knowledge pertinent to specific proposals.

Charge: During the 2021–2022 academic year (a pause year for new curricular initiatives), the UCC had a series of conversations to inform the development of university-wide curricular strategy, including considerations of equity, inclusion and social justice as a central tenet of curriculum, teaching, and learning. As a part of this work, the UCC will continue conversations as to an approach for ensuring that equity, inclusion, and social justice (EISJ) is better incorporated into all curriculum and/or curricular initiatives at the university. 

This year’s work will also be closely informed by university strategic planning processes and be influential in both informing and supporting the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) process. The body will review and advise on curricular initiatives as needed. 

Committee members are asked to engage and advise in a deeply responsive and consultative manner; to draw from their institutional and pedagogical experience and expertise, as well as the larger context of our current programmatic landscape; and to advise on academic programs so that they more fully realize and reflect present institutional priorities and student needs.

Membership
The committee is composed of academic leadership and leadership in key areas of curriculum development and management. This year, the membership will consist of members of the Provost’s Office; academic representation from each college; full-time faculty members from each college (some of whom also serve on the Faculty Senate and Faculty Affairs Committee); and representatives from Admissions and Enrollment; Registrar; and Marketing and Communication.
