It addresses the continued need for a policy, its alignment with institutional values and objectives, and its overall effectiveness. The checklist also scrutinizes the appropriate delegation of responsibility and authority, ensuring they are assigned to the correct individuals or bodies. A crucial aspect is the policy's alignment with current legal requirements and best practices in higher education, as well as its consistency with other university policies. The document emphasizes the importance of stakeholder education and practical implementation, including mechanisms for accountability. Finally, it covers drafting and formatting standards, ensuring adherence to the current policy template, functional hyperlinks, and accurate references to individuals, groups, committees, related documents, and legislation. The review process concludes with submitting a Policy Cover Sheet and the revised draft to the Policy Office at policyinfo@boisestate.edu.",{"@graph":63,"@context":119},[64,80,102],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":51,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/general/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/policy-review-checklist/165878/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/policy-review-checklist/165878.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"Alex Sinclair","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document","2026-09-21","2026-08-31",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":101},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":103,"mainEntity":104},"FAQPage",[105,111,115],{"name":106,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":108},"What is the purpose of this Policy Review Checklist?","Question",{"text":109,"@type":110},"The checklist provides a structured set of questions to guide a thoughtful and thorough review of existing policies, ensuring they remain necessary, effective, and aligned with institutional standards.","Answer",{"name":112,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":113},"What key areas are covered in the policy review criteria?",{"text":114,"@type":110},"The review criteria encompass the continued need for the policy, its alignment with institutional values and objectives, effectiveness, appropriate delegation of responsibility, compliance with legal requirements and best practices, implementation status, accountability mechanisms, and drafting/formatting standards.",{"name":116,"@type":107,"acceptedAnswer":117},"What should be done after completing the policy review?",{"text":118,"@type":110},"After reviewing the policy using the checklist, the completed Policy Cover Sheet and the draft policy should be submitted to the Policy Office via email at policyinfo@boisestate.edu.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":78,"og:type":121,"og:title":59,"og:site_name":91,"og:description":61},"article",{"robots":123,"canonical":78},"index,follow",{"doc_id":125,"site_id":56},165878,1788178044,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":128},{"doc_id":125,"user_id":129,"nickname":88,"user_avatar":130,"doc_module":9,"category_id":50,"category_name":51,"doc_title":59,"doc_description":61,"doc_content":131,"file_id":132,"file_url":133,"file_type":134,"file_size":135,"view_count":101,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":9,"is_downloadable":9,"audit_status":9,"page_count":9,"language":136,"language_code":57,"site_id":56,"html_lang":57,"table_of_contents":137,"faqs":138,"seo_title":139,"seo_description":61,"update_tm":126,"read_time":4},1099523882182,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_6f874abed73319feea01a86fa6f0fab8","Policy Review Checklist\nCriteria for Review\nThe following list of questions should be considered when reviewing an existing policy to ensure the review is conducted thoughtfully and thoroughly.
