Approval of Policy on Policies.

As part of Governor Beshear’s Executive Order issued on or about July 20, 2021 and House Bill 250, an act relating to Kentucky State University, signed into law on or about April 8, 2022, the Council for Postsecondary Education (CPE) has been tasked with the oversight of KSU in the coordination of a management and improvement plan. In response and in collaboration, KSU and CPE have adopted seven (7) distinct areas for review, one of which being the comprehensive cataloging and review of university policies and procedures.

As such and in compliance with House Bill 250, the proposed Policy on Policies outlines procedures for developing, revising, and implementing all internal University policies. A Policy on Policies is essential for any large organization with multiple policies governing multiple areas of operation to provide transparency, consistency, and accountability. CPE staff has reviewed the policy and supports its adoption by the Board. This Policy will be an important part of the on-going policy cataloging effort by the University.

Not applicable.

Interim President Ronald A. Johnson recommends that the Kentucky State University Board of Regents approve the Policy on Policies.
