Academic Requirements Committee
Standing Rules
The Academic Requirements Committee considers and acts on Student Petitions referred to the
Committee by the Office of the Registrar. Such petitions normally request approval of deviations from
Academic Regulations or procedures and, in special cases, may require interpretations of the
regulations. In considering academic matters or problems, the Committee consults with appropriate
individuals, committees, or academic units. The Committee may recommend changes for improvement
of regulations or procedures to the Academic Regulations Committee. The Committee consists of seven
Faculty, one of whom may be retired on a 1039-hour appointment, with at least one undergraduate academic advisor, two Students (one graduate, one undergraduate)
and the Registrar (or representative), ex-officio, non-voting.
