2023 Staff Council election open for voting until Oct. 20

Voting is currently underway for the 2023 ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Staff Council elections. Ballots have been sent out to all of the even-numbered units with the current nominees for those seats, as well as the nominees for the at-large representative seats. Ballots containing the nominees for the at-large seats have also been sent to the odd-numbered units. Please note that you are welcome to write in candidates if you would like. If you are a ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ employee who is in one of the Staff Council units, but did not receive a ballot, please contact us.

Staff Council representatives serve as an important link between their unit and ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's administration. By voicing staff concerns and needs to ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ and UA leadership, Staff Council plays a vital role in the shared governance of our university. Representatives are essential to ensuring that staff at all levels are included in the many complex decisions made at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ every day. We deeply thank all of the employees who have accepted their nominations and look forward to working with our new and returning representatives in 2024.
