Represent your colleagues in matters that involve Towson University’s staff! The Towson University Staff Council (TUSC) works on issues and projects that contribute to the overall success of the University. Nominate yourself or a colleague to serve on TUSC. The nomination period will be open from March 2 to March 20.
A Message to Prospective Members: TUSC (Towson University Staff Council) is looking for individuals to join us and represent your colleagues on items that will both involve you and impact matters of the University as a whole. In 1993, this council was formed by the President to serve as an advisory board to the President’s Staff on non-faculty matters. TUSC offers all staff the opportunity to express concerns and ideas on important matters. TUSC’s primary function and goal is to be the voice of staff on campus. TUSC is an active participant in the university shared governance approach to leadership. Shared governance refers to appropriately shared responsibility and cooperative action among the components of the institution for decision making and policy creation. TUSC is a participant on several committees and task forces.
The staff council is a contributor on the Staff Development Task Force, Research Planning and Advisory Committee, the University Senate, The Diversity Task Force against Bias, Discrimination, and Bullying and numerous other leadership initiatives.
In order for the Council to be effective, it is imperative that the members attend monthly meetings (held on the third Wednesday of each month from 1 to 3 p.m.) and participate in one or two committees that focus on specific initiatives. Some of you may have a great interest in being a part of TUSC but are unable to do so because of unique job responsibilities. Please think about the commitment to assure your ability to participate fully on the Council. Council members serve three-year terms. Please feel free to contact any of the current TUSC members should you desire more information.
Staff who meet the vacancy requirements of the open vacancies will receive notice of acceptance of their nomination. Those not meeting requirements will be advised of future opportunities on the staff council. Please Enter your Nomination below and click submit!
