Switch to new UF link-based syllabus material
Yesterday UF released an update to the University Syllabus Policy that is meant to reduce faculty and administrative burden and to support consistent and accessible communication of university-wide student resources and policies. As you know each syllabus is required to list UF’s policies on grading, attendance, etc, as well as inform students of academic and wellness resources. This required a careful check each semester to ensure each syllabus was up to date. Instead of including this information in each syllabus, we can now provide a statement directing students to a UF webpage where all the policies and resources are posted and kept up to date for all.
This update and link, approved by the Academic Policy Council in the spring, is now live and ready for use in your course syllabus. https://syllabus.ufl.edu/syllabus-policy/uf-syllabus-policy-links/
