During times of transition, such as an administrative reorganization of the College or in emergency situations, the President's Cabinet may enact temporary exceptions to local policy requirements and /or enact new policies to facilitate business continuity until current local policies are updated in accordance with the new organizational structure/change or until the emergency has resolved.  In the event that Cabinet is not readily available to convene, the President may enact temporary exceptions until such time that the Cabinet is available to review and approve the exception.   At all times, the College must not act inconsistently with TBR policy unless expressly exempted by TBR to do so.

Exceptions to NeSCC policy may be granted for a period of up to six months. If circumstances warrant, Cabinet may extend NeSCC policy exceptions for up to an additional six months.
