Purpose

This policy is intended to describe the numbering system used in the Ohio University Policy and Procedure Manual, so that new policy statements may be assigned numbers that are consistent with those already in use, and so that people wishing to find the policy statement that addresses a particular concern can more readily find it.


Policy

The policy and procedure numbering system will be a five digit number consisting of a two digit general classification number and a three digit index number, separated by a period, XX.YYY:

Some issues are more appropriately addressed within the Faculty Handbook, rather than as part of this Policy and Procedure Manual; other issues are best addressed here; and some issues will be addressed in both locations.
