Currently, there are twenty members on the Professional Staff Senate. Any changes to this, will have to be made in the form of an amendment to the current bylaws. Prior to our next meeting, Senate members are asked to reflect on what they believe the role of the senate as an organization should be and what each senator's role within the organization should be. Senators are also asked to consider if a retreat is in order to discuss these issues further. Nicki Piaget reported that members from the leadership committee met with Michelle Drucker Horning from the Human Resources office to discuss this event and it was decided that Michelle will work with the Professional Staff Senate to plan this event.
Collaboration is the goal.
Discussion concerning the location of the forum followed with the committee's interest being focused on the Stone House. The committee recognizes that this location poses a bigger challenge in regards to advertising and food. The date for this event is Friday, March 10th. The committee is interested in hearing from senate members concerning their topic ideas for this forum. Nicki Piaget reported on the November 19th meeting.
