Staff Council Needs Your Voice!
Members of Staff Council represent all staff across the university to make a difference at DePaul. We all work here - let's work together to make it an enriched and informed community. Staff Council is seeking staff members who represent all areas of the university, bring different perspectives and experiences, and who can be the voice for staff colleagues.
Membership requires:
- Attendance and participation at monthly meetings
- Participation in a Staff Council standing committee
- Representation and advocacy for staff colleagues
- Becoming informed about current university issues, especially those relating to staff
- Communication with colleagues about university issues
- Participation in Staff Council activities and events
How long is the commitment?
Staff Council members serve a two-year term, for which they must be elected by staff peers.
How do I get elected?
Each March, a call for new Staff Council members is sent out to all staff. If you are interested in running for Staff Council, check back here in March for more information. Once the full slate of candidates has been determined, the election then takes place in April and is open to all full-time and part-time staff members below vice presidential level.
