IMPORTANT: Paper copies of new and revised policies are no longer mailed to manual custodians, so if a department wishes to continue to maintain a hard copy of their manual, they need to click on the links provided and print out replacement pages to insert in their manual. We encourage everyone to use this electronic version of the manual. You will always have the most recent policies and not run the risk that a hard copy manual has not been updated. In addition, the electronic format ensures wide access to policies, enables electronic searches, and allows for quick update of policies.

NEWS: On January 19, 2012, President Schmidly granted an exception to the current version of Policy 1310 on a one-year trial basis. Click here to view President Schmidly’s authorizing memo. The following proposed amendments to the policy are still under review. Policy 1310 “Student Fee Review Board Policy” http://www.unm.edu/~ubppm/d1310hl.htm The recommended changes reflect a collaboration between ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal and GPSA President Katie Richardson that will ultimately benefit the student body and are fully supported by both presidents. The composition of the board will be five (5) undergraduates and two (2) graduates with one (1) alternate for the undergraduates and two (2) alternates for the graduate students. The composition of the board better reflects the population of students on campus. 2. All policy changes and fee increases or decreases must be approved by six (6) voting members of the board. 3. All applications will be treated equally and follow the same process for allocation and approval of student fees. 4. The new process will result in more equitable and accurate recommendations and will provide the opportunity for individuals to have a greater voice in determining appropriate funding amounts.  Click here to view campus comments received on proposed changes to this policy.
