This development marks a significant step toward ensuring the voices and concerns of the roughly 2,000 PRAs and RAs are effectively heard and addressed by university leadership. ?
  • Chancellor Search Committee – With the announcement of Chancellor DiStefano’s retirement, Staff Council was asked by the Office of the President to put forward staff nominees to be considered for the Chancellor Search Committee. As this is an important process,?Staff Council wanted to ensure that any pool presented was diverse?in years of service, job role and identity. Staff Council put out an open call for those interested to apply, and we received close to 60 applications from some truly incredible staff which we sent to the President’s office for consideration. Thank you to all who took time to apply. Individuals selected for the committee will be notified by the President’s office. In addition to recommending committee applicants, Staff Council passed a resolution and submitted it to the Office of the President requesting more equal representation among the governance groups sitting on the search committee by increasing the number of staff and students slots available on the committee. The resolution was passed on October 10, 2023.?
