UA System Board Rule 108: System Office and University Policies Board Rule 108 exists to govern the policy-making process, and applies to all “policies, handbooks, manuals, and other guides to their organizations and operations” adopted by the System Office and campuses to ensure: consistency with other UA System policies; and compliance with UA System Board of Trustees Bylaws. In developing policies, appropriate constituencies and sister campus policies should be consulted. Each campus should seek consistency to the extent practicable, and shall work with their campus Office of Counsel. It is recognized that campus policies may differ to reflect appropriate differences in campus roles or missions. Proposed new policies (including interim policies) and substantive revisions should be sent to the appropriate Campus Designee for consideration and approval by the Chancellor’s Designee.
