Community Networks

Service by and for the Campus Community

Our division supports more than 2500 advisory committee, employee resources groups, and leadership group members—groups that meet more than 100 times in the course of a year—in their work to advocate for our Principles of Community across campus and in our surrounding region.

Much of the vital work necessary to create this environment is accomplished through staff organizations that have been founded by staff and sponsored by the University for the purpose of providing opportunities to build and strengthen both personal and professional connections that enrich campus community. The work that our staff does through these organizations is, in fact, work on behalf of the university and should be valued and respected as much as any other work. This is not “volunteer” work that an employee does in their free time, and we need to be sure that staff have time during their regular workday to perform this important work and serve the campus community in this way.
