Executive Committee

Our Mission

The Executive Committee meets monthly during the academic year to help set the overall direction of the Professional Staff Senate as an organization. Together the members of the Executive Committee evaluate ideas from the various committees and review proposed resolutions. The meetings provide a smaller forum for speakers who may not be of interest to the entire professional staff.

Meetings of the Executive Committee are open to the public. Senators are encouraged to attend at least one Executive Committee meeting per semester
