UAF STAFF COUNCIL #132
FEBRUARY 8, 2002
Elections, Membership, and Rules Report
We are continuing to work toward the completion of three motions that we plan to bring to the Staff Council body for a vote at our March 1st face-to-face meeting. The motions are by-law revisions regarding making provisions for departments (units) to petition for changes to their representation on the Council. This issue was initially raised last year due to the desire by staff at IARC to have their own unit designation. In addition to work on by-law revisions the committee will be looking to begin the process to receive nominations for a new President-Elect. The first meeting of the year will be held on February 5, at 10:00 a.m. in the Chancellor’s Conference Room.
