NOTICE OF PROPOSED NEW UNIVERSITY EMAIL POLICY

SUMMARY

The university recognizes that principles of academic freedom, freedom of speech, privacy, and confidentiality hold important implications for email and email services, and the university community needs to understand their rights and responsibilities when using university email services. The purpose of this policy is to outline these rights and responsibilities.

This new policy combines information from two previous email policies – Use of Email for Official Correspondence with Employees and Electronic Mail Policy. These two policies will be repealed upon approval of this new policy.

A copy of the revised policy is available on the University Policies website.

Members of the university community are invited to submit written comments via the Policy Feedback box on the policy or by sending comments to policy@arizona.edu.

All comments must be received by close of business on Oct. 8, 2024.

Please note: Policy feedback is available to University Initiatives & Policy, the Policy Sponsor, and elected shared governance representatives, upon request, for policies impacting the populations they represent.
