How proposals move through CIM

1. The Originator(s) is notified via email when the proposal is returned to them for revision, is in their CIM queue for another reason, or has been approved.
2. The liaison review period is 7 calendar days. The review committees do not have a timeline, but do their best to review proposals in a timely manner.

• Steps requiring faculty review will be delayed during Summer term or Winter break.

3. Reviewer(s) must approve the proposal before it can move forward to the next step. The reviewer may send the proposal back to the originator(s) for revision. All questions and comments made by reviewers must be addressed by the originator prior to final approval and catalog implementation.
