Mark Your Calendar for College Staff Forum Council Meetings, Beginning August 22
Greetings from the College Staff Forum Council! It’s a new year and time to get this party started! Please see our schedule of meetings and speakers below and mark your calendars to join us for our upcoming College Staff Forum Council meetings.
The purpose of the College Staff Forum Council (CSFC) is to serve as an instrument for the formulation and expression of faculty, student and staff points of view as represented by staff who report up through vice presidents versus being assigned to a specific campus. The council typically considers questions relevant to its constituencies. It provides advice to and seeks advice from its Administrative Council representative. CSFC also communicates with and makes recommendations to campus committees, college committees and/or the College Senate.
The College Staff Forum Council represents all administrative faculty, teaching/professional faculty and classified staff whose primary work location is not on a campus. Our 2024-2025 list of committee members is available at CSFC Council Members. We currently have two vacancies on the committee. If you are interested in serving as a member of CSFC or another college committee, a special election will be held in September to fill college committee vacancies.
The council meets on the 4th Thursday of the month at 1 p.m. via Zoom for most of the organizational year. Our schedule and list of guests with presentation topics planned for the fall 2024 semester is below:
August 22
- Anne Kress, President, Belonging Reading Circle
