Educational Planning and Policy Committee
Scope and Content
The papers of the Educational Planning and Policy Committee demonstrate the large range of topics the committee was charged with considering. Plans for new programs, changes to programs, personnel matters, reviews of disciplines, budget issues, fraternity housing and residential issues, computing plans, affirmative action, and day care are just a few examples of the types of issues the committee has examined. Here is an example of the topics discussed in the meeting minutes for the April 7, 1972:
- Personnel actions involving academic tenure
- Planning for Cook College
- Status of ROTC
- New academic programs
- Proposed changes in tenure regulations and procedures for faculty evaluation
- Bachelor of science degree—Douglass College
- Role and composition of the cenate
- Open university program
- Public Interest Research Group
- University Senate actions
The papers themselves mostly consist of meeting minutes and supporting material. If the establishment of a new program at Rutgers was on the agenda, the papers for that month's meeting might be accompanied by the program proposal and numerous curricula vitae of candidates for the department.
