Staff Senate

Staff Senate fosters a spirit of unity, pride, and cooperation by advising University administration. 

These dedicated people have a substantial impact in making specific recommendations for changes. The Staff Senate has been involved in numerous professional development initiatives and proposals

Purpose of Staff Senate

The Staff Senate is comprised of elected representatives from each salary band to serve the following objective purposes: 

  • To serve as an active link for meaningful information exchange between staff and administration relative to issues of mutual concern. 
  • To provide open meetings to express, propose, represent, investigate and debate issues. The Staff Senate, acting as an official and responsible voice in University affairs, will recommend action on issues that receive majority approval of the senators. 
  • To advise the President with regard to working conditions and employment practices, including recognition, compensation and other pertinent issues. 
  • To promote awareness of opportunities developed by Staff Senate, encourage involvement in campus and community activities and increase knowledge of the operation of the University.
