Staff Senators
Staff Senators are elected representatives.
Duties of a Staff Senator include: participate in meetings, serve on at least one standing committee of the Staff Senate, represent constituents by facilitating open lines of communication, and serve on a university committee, if appointed, to name a few. The chairs of these committees serve along with the officers to form the Executive Committee.
Time Commitment for a Senator
The overall time commitment of a Staff Senator can vary, but being an effective Senator often involves a commitment of several hours per month, including meeting attendance, committee involvement, and constituent engagement.
It’s essential for Senators to balance these responsibilities with their regular job duties and personal commitments. A typical Senator’s time commitments may look like
- Staff Senate Full Body Meetings: 2 hours/month (required)
- Staff Senate Committee Meetings: 1-2 hours/month (required)
- Voluntary Service Activities: 3-4 hours/month (depending on availability)
- Senator Onboarding: 2 hours in July (required)
