Thank you for your interest in submitting a policy change for the UPAC Requestor Handbook. Policy 1.3.3. outlines the procedure for Handbook policy changes and includes the following three points:
-Any student paying the Student Initiated Fee at University Park may research and generate policy recommendations for the UPAC Requestor Handbook.
-The Leadership Team will review all policy proposals, correct factual errors in the background, and suggest additional changes. Any changes that the author declines will be written up as an addendum to the policy on a separate sheet by a Leadership Team member. The Leadership Team will assign a contact person for each policy change submission. If the policy is found to violate Student Fee Board policy, the author will be notified in writing. Suggested policy changes will be reviewed at the first available policy meeting. The author will be notified no less than twelve (12) academic days in advance of the meeting.
-Changes to UPAC policies and procedures, approved by the full committee, will be effective at the beginning of the following academic year unless otherwise determined by the committee.
If you are a student at University Park paying the Student Initiated Fee, you may submit policy recommendations using this form. Please fill out the form as completely as possible, and the UPAC Leadership Team will contact you with any suggested changes.
All policy recommendations for the UPAC Requestor Handbook are due by 11:59 PM on Monday, April 12th. Late submissions will not be accepted.
Please note that UPAC's Requestor Handbook policy review meeting will be held at 6 PM on Tuesday, April 20th and is open to the public.
If you have any questions or concerns or would like assistance in putting together a policy recommendation, please contact the UPAC Chair at
