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. There's never been a more important time to consider joining Staff Council. Staff Council representatives can expect to spend 3-5 hours per month on Staff Council business.
