Chart of Responsibility
Policies and Procedures
Note: This table is currently under revision to correct the titles and offices.
Earlham’s governance system both encourages wide consultation about policies and procedures and delegates authority to committees and to responsible decision-makers.
The pages in this section detail those policies and procedures and explains what committee, if any, generally has responsibility, whose approval and/or consultation is required (the Faculty Meeting, the president and/or the Board of Trustees), and what administrative faculty member or office has decision-making authority.
