Re: Online Catalog Questions--campus guidelines

Montana Tech locks the catalog and most changes are saved for the following year.  However, if the change will benefit the student, we go ahead and make it in the current catalog.  For example, if a course is added to the list of accepted General Education classes, we will go ahead and add it to the current year.  This happens infrequently so is easy to accommodate.  We also fix any typos, errors, etc. in the current, locked edition.

Subject: Online Catalog Questions--campus guidelines

 

Hi All;

 

For those of you that have online catalogs do you have any guidelines you developed or provided to the campus regarding when items like policies/procedures can be updated to the on-line documents?  For instance if a policy changes mid-year do you update it to the current catalog or do you put it in a draft for next year’s catalog?

 

Any suggestions about guidelines (or even guideline documents) would be appreciated as I’m already starting to deal with these questions even as we are just transitioning.  It would be nice to hear what others who have gone before have found as best practices.
