Staff Council nominations open Sept. 8
September 4, 2020
Staff Council representatives serve as an important link between their unit and UAF’s administration. By voicing staff concerns and needs to UAF 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 UAF every day. While we recognize that many staff are overworked and that adding yet another responsibility may seem unfeasible, there’s never been a more important time to consider joining Staff Council. Staff Council representatives can expect to spend three to five hours per month on Staff Council business.
Visit the Staff Council unit finder tool to verify which unit you belong to (UA network or VPN required). Those in odd-numbered units are welcome to nominate themselves or a colleague to serve a two-year term representing that unit. You may also nominate a staff member from any unit to an at-large position.
