ROLE OF FACULTY, STAFF, AND STUDENTS
|
The expertise or viewpoints of individual faculty, staff, and students
are frequently essential in developing assessments of the potential
impact on the University of proposed legislation. In this context,
when consistent with institutional objectives, the staff of the
Office of Governmental Relations may facilitate direct communication
to elected officials by University faculty, staff, and students.
While faculty, staff, and students are also free to communicate
individually with elected representatives about their personal views,
it is important that any communication which is not coordinated
through the Office of Governmental Relations be carefully framed
so as not to imply that the individual is communicating an institutional
position or viewpoint on behalf of the University (see Operations
Manual II-14 Use
of University Name).
