\par }{\b UAF Policy Concerning Classified and Proprietary Research
\par }{
\par 
\par This statement of policy and procedures addresses the issues of whether and, if so, under what conditions, classified and proprietary research should be conducted 
at the University.  The goal of this policy is to establish a rigorous procedure guaranteeing that any classified or proprietary research be conducted in a responsible and ethical manner consistent with the mission of the ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥.

\par 
\par T
he conduct of classified research restricts participation of students and limits faculty who work on such research.  The results of classified research may not be contained in theses nor used for faculty review or advancement.  The University seeks a poli
cy, in principle, of complete disclosure of research activities and sources of funds.
\par  
\par At times, freedom of discourse and dissemination conflicts with the greater, immediate needs of society.  Research funded by industrial organizations may involve patent 
applications that require a short delay of publication of a thesis resulting from that research.  Faculty members may also wish to act as consultants on classified research projects not involving the use of University facilities.
\par 
\par For reasons such as the a
bove, proposals to conduct classified and proprietary research will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the University campus chancellor and the UAF Faculty Research Oversight Committee, with disclosure to the Faculty Senate, following the guidelines s
et forth below.
\par 
\par Definitions
\par 
\par }{\ul Classified Research}{:  Research that has a security classification established by a federal agency.
\par 
\par Various agencies of the federal government may designate some federally sponsored research project, either all or a portion of 
a particular project, as Top Secret, Secret, or Confidential.  Under the terms of this policy, research projects so designated are considered classified.
\par 
\par }{\ul Proprietary Research}{:  Industrially sponsored proprietary research for which the sponsor requires a delay in publication of the results after submission of the final report.

ry purpose of the research or application of the results is the destruction of human life or harm to humans.  The University will undertake only those contracts and activities that do not compromise the safety and/or well-being of ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥ns and that honor 
existing agreements with the diverse peoples of ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥.
\par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright {
\par 2.\tab The University will make every reasonable effort to keep classified information and activities separate from the normal academic functions of the University.
\par 
\par 3.\tab No thesis that may not be published because it contains federally classified or proprietary information will be accepted toward fulfillment of the requirements for an advanced degree.
\par 
\par 4.\tab For proprietary research the University will not enter into or renew any contract or accept any grant t
hat prohibits the open publication or dissemination of research results within a reasonable period, typically (and expected to be) no more than 60 days or a period negotiated at the time of contract initiation.
\par 
\par 5.\tab No University courses given for credit shall be classified in any part.
\par 
\par 6.\tab The University will not accept any contract that cannot be publicly acknowledged.  The University will maintain an open record of all classified and proprietary research contracts.
\par 
\par 7.\tab The University will permit the parti
cipation of faculty members in classified research of their choice by means of normal consulting arrangements or leaves of absence without pay.  Faculty shall not use classified research work in consideration for tenure, promotion or post-tenure review

\par 
\par 8.\tab Any unique security costs associated with classified or proprietary research will be borne by the unit within which the contract is sponsored.
\par 
\par 9.\tab The University will establish and maintain Facilities Security Officers to the degree necessary to ensure the legal compliance of all classified agreements.
\par 
\par 10.\tab A Faculty Research Oversight Committee will be established as a Standing Committee of the Faculty Senate to review all classified and proprietary proposals, grants and contracts to advise the chancellor
 of their compliance or lack thereof with University policy.  Membership on the committee shall be limited to 9 senators, with no more than 2 members being from the same unit.  The Facilities Security Officer shall be an ex-officio member of the committee
.   Committee membership must broadly represent the university community.
\par 
\par 11.\tab The committee will offer changes to this policy as needed through periodic reviews occurring no less than once every 5 years.
\par 
\par 
\par }{\ul Basic Principles
\par }{
\par The UAF mission statement proclaims that the ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥ is "the nation\rquote 
s northern most Land, Sea and Space Grant university and international research center, [which] advances and disseminates knowledge through creative teaching, research and public service with an em
phasis on ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥, the North and their diverse peoples" (BOR Policy 10.01.03).  Through exercising the fulfillment of that mission, the University has enabled relationships with government and industry presenting intellectual and professional opportunities
 
to faculty and students that they would not otherwise have.  Concomitant with the open and full pursuit of that mission comes our understanding that the pursuit of knowledge must be tempered by ethical obligations to society; hence our concern with an eth
ical approach to permitting classified and proprietary research on campus.
\par }\pard\plain \s16\widctlpar\adjustright \cgrid {\f7 
\par }\pard\plain \widctlpar\adjustright \f7\cgrid {The purpose of academic research in the University is the education of students, at all levels, and the generation of new knowledge.  It is important that the University undertake r
esearch of high quality and originality.  Ongoing research strengthens the University in a variety of ways;
\par   *\tab through the stimulation of creative and intellectual investigation by faculty and students,
\par   *\tab through the discovery and dissemination of new knowledge that benefits society,
\par   *\tab through participation in a learning process that is unique to research and creative investigation,
\par   *\tab through transmission of new knowledge to students in the classroom.
\par 
\par 
\par }{\ul Obligation
\par }{
\par The university guarantees each memb
er of the academic community the freedom to inquire and affirms the right of each member to access all available information in his or her field.  A basic function of the University is to carry out research in an open and unrestricted manner with complete
 
freedom to publish or otherwise disseminate the results of its search for knowledge.  The requirements of secrecy and restrictions on freedom to publish, which are inherent in security classification, or the restrictions on dissemination, which derive fro
m proprietary rights of privately sponsored research, are in direct opposition to this function.
\par }\pard\plain \s16\widctlpar\adjustright \cgrid {\f7 
\par }\pard\plain \widctlpar\adjustright \f7\cgrid {Exercising this function does not, however, prohibit self-imposed restrictions based on the professional ethics of a particular discipline.  It also does not p
rohibit the existence of classified information to reside on campus such as sometimes arises, for instance, in connection with consulting work.  This policy is directed towards maintaining a separation between classified information and the teaching and r
esearch functions of the University.}{\kerning28 
\par }{
\par The review process for classified and proprietary research proposals shall be as follows:
\par 
\par   *\tab The Faculty Research Oversight Committee shall use a checklist to determine if a project requires formal review.
\par   *\tab The Faculty Research Oversight Committee shall review classified or proprietary proposals and offer recommendations to the chancellor in an expedited fashion.
\par   *\tab The Faculty Research Oversight Committee will publish an annual report on the status of classified and proprietary contracts, grants and proposals to the UAF Faculty Senate on an annual basis.
\par   *\tab The Faculty Research Oversight Committee (see above) shall also include a person from the Office of Sponsored Research and a designee of the chancellor as ex-officio members.

m
ed by outcomes assessment questionnaires from both employers and graduates that indicate a new trend within the fire service.  Employers are now seeking emergency personnel that are proficient in areas of written and oral communication, computation and hu
m
an relations rather than graduates with only the FIRE and EMS courses.  Graduates without general education skills are unable to pass highly competitive written entrance exams administered by larger fire departments for placement on hiring rosters.  The c

rtificate has outlived it usefulness for highly competitive careers in fire departments and emergency services.  Graduates seeking leadership roles in the fire services are recognizing the benefit of completing the B.T. degree which combines the technical
 knowledge of the A.A.S. degree with business administration to become Fire Chiefs of the future.
