Welcome to Saint Joseph's University new governance tracking and communication platform!

Below is a summary of how the site works as well as our integration with SJU's G-Suite:

gov.sju.edu

• The central location of all governance related materials (formerly in various BlackBoard sites)
• Each governing body will have a page on the site that shows the description of group, group bylaws, the membership of who has access to the group, and a designated area for documents and resources of the group (Google Drive folders)
  • The access has been established based upon the guidelines in the faculty handbook and can be managed
• In the near future, members of the University community will be able to submit mandates to go through the governance system in a uniform manner
  • Submitter will be able to track where their mandate is
  • Bodies will be notified when the mandate comes to them
  • Mandates can be tagged with meeting dates of discussion
  • Attach reports on mandates from the various bodies
• Mandates will be searchable and filtered by title, year of submission, status, and keywords

Google Drive

• Files have been migrated from Blackboard to folders in Google drive
  • Meeting minutes
  • Agendas
• These folders are owned by the chair of the respective committees
• The access has been established based upon the guidelines in the faculty handbook and can be managed
• For easy retrieval, faculty can add a “Star” the folder(s)
