Employee comments sought on open access and policing policies

Employee Comment: Open Access for Theses and Dissertations

The University invites comments on a revised proposed Presidential Policy on Open Access for Theses and Dissertations.

The policy is new and includes the following key issues:

• There is currently no system-wide uniformity or policy for ensuring open access to UC graduate students' theses and dissertations. This policy will provide system-wide consistency for these works.
• Allowance for embargoes that delay the date theses or dissertations are made available in an open access repository.

The policy proposal is posted here.

If you have any questions or if you wish to comment, please contact Robin Sanchez at rgsanchez@ucanr.edu no later than April 10, 2019.

Employee Comment: Task Force Recommendations of University-wide Policing

The University invites comments on the Task Force recommendations of University-wide policing.

As you may be aware, President Napolitano initiated a task force in April of this year to examine university-wide policing policies and processes in order to provide a final report of recommendations by December 31. The Task Force has been working diligently for the last eight months to craft these recommendations based off of policing best practices, policies, and laws. The Task Force is requesting your input and feedback on the recommendations before finalizing the report. 

The Executive Summary of the recommendations is posted here.

If you have any questions or if you wish to comment, please contact Robin Sanchez at rgsanchez@ucanr.edu no later than Dec. 3, 2018.
