The existing Employee Councils are being merged into one new entity representing over 5,100 staff. The mission of the new Staff Senate is to be a representative and deliberative voice for staff in matters relating to the University.
The first meeting of the Staff Senate will be on Thursday, August 7, at a luncheon meeting with President Sullivan. Officers and representatives from all of the current councils will remain in place through August 2015. If you are interested in participating, please contact your area representative.
There is a position currently available to represent SFS and the Comptroller's Office. If you are interested in participating, please submit your name to Mary Fields (mrf2n@virginia.edu) by August 4.
