Hello Listers,
According to the Records Retention Guidelines set for the University System of Georgia by the Board of Regents, we are to retain "Course Records" for "7 years after obsolescence." The full citation is:
"Course Records: This series provides a record of departmental course offerings and individual course contents. This series may include but is not limited to: syllabi; course descriptions; course outlines; course summaries; course requests and proposals; curriculum approval lists; lists of classes by term; bibliographies; readings lists; course announcements; handout materials; and related documentation and correspondence."
The legal citation is : O.C.G.A. 9-3-24 (Actions on simple written contracts; exceptions: "All actions upon simple contracts in writing shall be brought within six years after the same becomes due and payable.")
The question I have is a practical one - how does one determine "obsolescence" of a course/sylllabus?
I had a faculty member stump me on this one, so I'd love to hear from any university records managers out there...!
