Campus Shred Day

In Spring 2021 the University Committee on Administrative Policies approved the . The Records Retention Policy requires that University records be retained for the amount of time prescribed in each department’s or division’s retention schedule. Each department or division should have an official (or draft) record retention schedule at this point. Published schedules can be found on the shared drive, some schedules are still going through the approval process but should be followed for the time being. If your area has not submitted a record retention schedule, or you’re unsure, please contact moconnor@jcu.edu for more information.��
