University Policies and Procedures
Introduction
The Policies and Procedures Manual for Delaware State University includes most general University policies. It is subject to additions, removals and other changes based on the needs of the University and without prior notice. Departmental and college policies, and certain safety regulations, have been excluded but may be obtained from the appropriate unit. The Manual represents a source for written policies affecting University personnel and in some instances University students, visitors and those with whom the University does business. It recognizes and encourages the need for continuous review and improvement of policies, practices and procedures.
