POLICY TITLE: Academic Calendar Policy
VOLUME, SECTION & NUMBER: 1.1.1
ENTITIES AFFECTED: Students Faculty Staff Administration
ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY: Department of Academic & Student Affairs Department of Finance & Business Affairs Office of Human Resources
APPROVED BY: Kentucky State University Board of Regents
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 27, 2023
REVISED FROM: Previous Version of Policy
The Academic Calendar Policy replaces the semester adoption of academic calendars. In addition, the Department of Academic and Student Affairs will use the policy to collaboratively construct and publish academic calendars for at least two years in advance or more. These recommended updates to the academic policy will make the construction of the academic calendar routine, allowing for the publication of academic calendars at least two years in advance or more, and allow for long-term planning for the campus.
If Academic and Student Affairs must propose a calendar that deviates from these principles, then the calendar must be approved by Human Resources and Finance and Administration; otherwise, individual academic calendars will not need Senate, Human Resources, or Finance and Administration approval.
