The naming of a facility or programmatic unit contributes to the University's sense of its own heritage and is a significant event in the history of the institution. Such namings demand due consideration and consultation. The Arizona Board of Regents Policy 1-117 provides the basic and controlling regulations involved in the naming of facilities (defined below) or programmatic units (departments, schools, institutions, centers, or colleges) for individuals or organizations. This document amplifies Regents' policy by stipulating the detailed policies and procedures to be observed at the University of Arizona.
