STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The purpose of the Vincennes University Support Staff Council is to render advice, make recommendations, and provide assistance to the University concerning matters that affect the general welfare, working conditions, and productivity of the represented staff.
Membership is open to any full-time permanent Support Staff employee, who has successfully completed a probationary period, subject to available vacancies in accordance with the terms of the bylaws.
Membership on the Council shall be for a two-year period according to a rotating system. Council members shall not serve more than two consecutive terms. Eligibility for membership is reinstated after a two-year period.
The Support Staff Council works together to provide services for the entire Vincennes University population, such as the annual Veterans’ Day Program, and specifically for Support Staff, such as the Support Staff Scholarships and Professional Development opportunities.
We welcome your ideas and participation in the Support Staff Council.
