Doc. T94-054, as amended
Passed by the Board of Trustees on June 8, 1994
Amherst, Boston, Dartmouth, Lowell, Worcester
In order to improve the reporting process, the Affirmative Action officers will submit the full campus Affirmative Action Plans to the Board of Trustees every two or three years. Procedural requirements will remain in effect until revisions are approved by the Board of Trustees. The campuses will, however, provide annual updates to the Trustees in the areas of statistics, goals and timetables, utilization, and new initiatives, and also continue to provide timely updates and reports to the federal contracting authorities. This will allow the campuses to focus more on the aspects of their plans which are subject to change and which more accurately depict how successful the campus efforts are in the area of affirmative action and diversity. The statistical information will always be current and any new programs will be highlighted each year in a more compact document, allowing for easier focus on the more essential features of each plan. Representatives from each campus will be available to review their plans and inform the Committee of current results and future goals. The President shall establish reporting guidelines including components for inclusion in the two-to-three year plans and the annual updates.
