Document Reference Codes
Although a Table of Contents is included, because many policies address more than one subject, using the Table of Contents is the less reliable means of locating a specific policy or a number of policies that address a subject.
Each policy contains a document reference code, such as 1A1, which indicates where the policy can be found. The policy's document reference code is shown in the title bar of the browser window. Elements of the codes refer, in order from left to right, to the chapter, the subdivision within that chapter, and the number of the policy within the subdivision. The example, 1A1, means the policy is located in Chapter 1, in the first subdivision (A) of Chapter 1, and is the first policy included in subdivision A.
As policies are added, the document reference codes may be extended beyond three elements, depending on the selected location for new policies. If, for instance, a new policy was to be inserted between existing policies 1A1 and 1A2, it could be coded as 1A1a, or 1A1b, or 1A1c, and so on.

In accordance with the SIUE Policy Development and Implementation Policy (7A1), all newly created and revised SIUE University-wide policies and procedures must be reviewed by the SIUE Policy Council. "The Policy Development and Implementation Policy provides a standardized and centralized process under which a proposed policy may be initiated, developed, reviewed, approved, implemented and disseminated in accordance with applicable standards of SIUE."
Please use these forms, which are listed in section V. C. of 7A1, when proposing new policies or changes to existing policies:
