Staff Senate Virtual Roundtable

The Staff Senate and the Office of Human Resources collaborated to offer a special forum with members of the University’s President’s Cabinet to discuss to start of the spring semester and operational plans for the coming months. This initiative was a follow up to the well-attended forum held before the start of the fall semester that provided staff members with a means to discuss the re-opening of campus with University administration.

Nearly 140 staff members attended this past week, submitting questions in advance and during the event. The topics discussed included: COVID-19 testing protocols for students, faculty, and staff; vaccine availability on campus; the University’s budget; staffing plans; and student life.

University President Scott R. Pilarz, S.J., joined the forum and expressed his gratitude for all of the work that the staff has done during these challenging times. The Staff Senate is grateful to its Cabinet liaison, Patti Tetreault, for assisting with the organization of the forum and to all of the staff and administrators who attended.
