Chart of Responsibility

Earlham's governance system both encourages wide consultation about policies and procedures and delegates authority to committees and to responsible decision-makers.

The following table shows for each section of the Earlham College Policies and Procedures what committee, if any, generally has responsibility, whose approval and/or consultation is required (the Faculty Meeting, the president and/or the Board of Trustees), and what administrative faculty member or office has decision-making authority.

Legend:
A = Responsible Committee
B = Faculty Meeting Approve?
C = Faculty Meeting Consult?
D = President Approve?
E = Responsible Administrative Office
F = Approval by Board

EWC = Earlham Welfare Committee
CPC = Curriculum Policy Committee
DPC = Diversity Policy Committee
