The Senate of The Michigan College of Mining and Technology
PROPOSAL 4-68
ACADEMIC FREEDOM AND ADMINISTRATIVE RULE MAKING POWER
It shall be the consensus of the Senate that:
- The development and dissemination of flexible policies or guidelines in relation to the instructional process is properly a cooperative endeavor in which University Administration, Faculty Senate, and the several academic departments must all participate if academic freedom is to be preserved.
- The unilateral prescribing of inflexible rules or directives for the control of such matters as the timing, duration, or nature of any element in the instructional process is not a proper exercise of University administrative responsibility.
Proposal Adopted by Senate:
