About

Instructional Policies Committee (IPC)

Purpose

The Committee considers problems of College life in the areas of courses, curricula, and instruction in undergraduate studies. It may either initiate or review recommendations for establishing or revising instructional policies and programs. The Committee further serves as an instrument of control to avoid course duplication and proliferation.

It is, however, an examining and recommending body and makes its recommendations to the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The Academic Vice President will review these recommendations with the Council of Academic Deans, of which he is Chairman, and this group will make their recommendations to the President. The President of the University makes all final decisions. It is not the responsibility of this Committee to determine if an item must go before the University of Louisiana System Board of Supervisors or the Board of Regents, or to decide the legality of a proposal submitted to it.
