The mission of the TCU Staff Assembly is to promote communication and understanding, provide a forum for the expression and exchange of ideas, and address concerns of the staff with the goal of fostering a superior University. These reports, and others, provide important information we can take back to our departments and co-workers across campus. Two issues addressed successfully by the Assembly so far are the establishment of an English as a Second Language class for employees who do not speak English and the elimination of required fees for services that employees enrolled in a class do not utilize. Ad-hoc committees are examining other issues that directly affect staff, and standing committees such as Community Service and Professional Development are looking at ways to contribute to the community. Because of the Staff Assembly, all staff have representation.
All staff have a voice.
The TCU Staff Assembly, still in its infancy, is already making positive changes in addressing staff concerns. We look forward to the organization maturing into an integral, contributing member of the TCU community.
