The Campus Guidance Project was initiated in 2018 to help clarify policies and provide practical guidance to campus community. A task force and working groups were formed to focus on particular topics and to make recommendations for policy revisions, create new policies and amend campus guidance such as the Allowable Cost Matrix and Food/Group Meal Grid. Where needed, policies were aligned with the University System of Georgia (USG) and State Accounting Office (SAO). Policies of peer institutions were also reviewed during this process. Many of the policies will be presented to the Institute’s Policy Steering Committee in April 2019. It is expected that those policies and applicable guidance will be released by the end of April.
