The Faculty Manual (St. 浪花直播 Campus)
The Faculty Manual is a foundational document setting out, in many respects, the role of the faculty in Saint 浪花直播 University governance.
It also specifies rights, powers, privileges, and responsibilities of faculty. Insofar as it does so, it is incorporated by reference in all contracts of employment between faculty and the University. All substantive modifications to University policies and benefits referenced in this Manual may occur only after prior consultation with the Faculty Senate (p.ii).

Process for Amendment of The Faculty Manual
The Joint Provost-Faculty Senate Committee on The Faculty Manual coordinates the revision process, including the proposal of revisions, of The Faculty Manual. All proposed amendments are reviewed by and voted upon by the Faculty Senate per the terms of The Faculty Manual.
A multi-step process with opportunities for public comment and review by senators and other faculty is used for amendments to The Faculty Manual. In November 2012, the Faculty Manual Revision Task Force outlined the process which has been in effect since that time.
