Staff Senate

Strategic Plan 2024-2027

Our Goals & Vision

The Staff Senate’s goals align to cultivate trust, enrich relationships throughout campus, and foster a creative culture for the UNC Greensboro community. In order to bring forth effective change, three areas have been identified.

  • Increase information, knowledge sharing, and resources through effective communication with staff across campus and with senators serving in Staff Senate.
  • Collaborate with administration, organizations, ad hoc, and special interest groups to strengthen relationships and move UNCG forward.
  • Identify how to receive feedback regularly and effectively from staff, to better understand campus and staff climate. Ensure a mechanism is in place to both receive feedback from staff and return updates to staff.
