§5.4.6 of the UMW Faculty Handbook requires that the course syllabus contain three policy statements: an accessibility statement; a course recording policy statement; and a Title IX policy statement. The following example syllabi statements are provided as a reference. Questions should be addressed to the office that is indicated as the source of the example syllabi statements listed below.
Accessibility Statements — from the Office of Disability Resources
Title IX Statement — from the Title IX Office
Recording Policy — example statements made available by the Office of the Provost
Additionally, the current environment requires one more statement that must be a part the course syllabus for any course containing an on-campus meeting component. The requirement is in effect beginning with the fall 2020 semester and will continue until further notice.
