  2. Some of the academic policies listed below have been partially superseded by the 2014-2019 Collective Agreement between SFU and the Faculty Association.  Those policies are in the process of being considered for revision.

  3. Policies are cross-referenced to the appropriate article(s) in the Collective Agreement for ease of reference and a direct link to the Collective Agreement is provided here. Please use and rely only on the Collective Agreement article(s) as the official, authoritative source.
