Routine statements, publications and other communications specific to a campus which are noncontroversial in nature, may be issued by that campus as deemed appropriate. This includes all materials to be published on the World Wide Web. Good judgement is required by the responsible parties in carefully screening all communications and making proper referrals. In cases where System approval is warranted, in the absence of the Chancellor, the Vice Chancellor may grant approvals. When both the Chancellor and Vice Chancellor are absent, the General Counsel's Office may grant approvals.
Appropriate procedures exist to implement college policy.
Communications, such as news releases, publications, videos, and electronic publications, including World Wide Web server information, sent out by the campus are filed with the TSTC System Public Information Office. Each campus has a public information crisis procedure system which is updated annually and filed with the TSTC System Public Information Office by September 1. 4. Any communications affecting the overall image of the institution are approved by System Public Information Office before dissemination to the public.
