Charge:

BL7.5 University Planning and Resources Council [formerly Appendix D]

The University Planning and Resources Council (UPRC) shall be responsible to the Faculty Senate for the formation and review of policy and procedures in all aspects of University Planning and allocation of resources, with special emphasis on matters of concern to the faculty. The responsibilities of the UPRC shall include:
1. Assuring that the council is well-informed about issues regarding planning at the University, as well as its financial operations and financial status.
2. Regular review of the University Strategic Plan, either on the UPRC's own initiative, or as requested by the President, the Provost, or the Faculty Senate.
3. Recommendation of priorities to be used in preparing the University's biennial operating and capital budget request, in the allocation of appropriated resources, and in consideration of budget reductions.
4. Examination of resource implications for major changes in the academic program. From time to time the Council will review the adequacy of the resources devoted to existing programs.
5. Participation in the allocation of resources appropriated by the legislature and review of how allocated resources are used at the University. It is not the role of the UPRC to attempt to direct or control the planning and budgetary process within the colleges and non-academic units, other than to provide broad general priorities.
