From the President
Posted: Thursday, May 12, 2016Response to College Senate Recommendation: Outsourcing of Credit-Bearing Classes
At its May 6, 2016, meeting, the College Senate voted to forward the following recommendation to the president for review and consideration:
Outsourcing of Credit-Bearing Classes
BE IT RESOLVED THAT in order to maintain academic integrity and to ensure that the curriculum is the purview of the faculty, Buffalo State College will not contract with third-party vendors to deliver classes that carry Buffalo State credit.
I accept the recommendation of the College Senate and authorize this policy on outsourcing of credit-bearing classes to be implemented immediately, commencing with summer 2016 courses. I charge the provost with responsibility for implementing the policy changes and communicating the policy broadly and widely to faculty and staff.
