The Educational Policies Committee (EPC) is a Faculty Senate Standing committee which reviews the curriculum of the University and formulates educational policies to be submitted to the Senate for approval. The EPC primarily accomplishes this through course revisions, additions, and deletions; and through curricular revisions and additions to degree programs.
The committee membership includes one elected faculty per College, six members elected at large (all for three-year terms) and two students selected by Student Government. The VP of Academic Affairs, chair of the General Education Committee, and the Registrar serve as non-voting, ex-officio members.
The committee elects from its members three to four representatives to serve on the “Curriculum Committee,” better known as the Subcommittee. The Subcommittee’s function is to pre-review submitted proposals and then submit recommended actions at the EPC full committee monthly meeting. EPC recommendations then proceed to Faculty Senate and to the Vice President of Academic Affairs for final action.
