Goals & PurposesThe goal of Staff Council is to promote a positive and collaborative work environment. The purposes are many:
HistoryThe University of Texas Staff Council was developed in 2001 as the result of efforts by Human Resource Services (HRS), with widespread support from President Larry Faulkner and the University Leadership Council. In a fall 2000 letter to university staff, HRS discussed the establishment of a Staff Council which, elected from across the campus, would represent the interests of all staff on a variety of workplace-related issues. The Associate Vice President for Human Resources, Kyle Cavanaugh, indicated that in his prior positions at Rice and Vanderbilt Universities, he worked closely with staff councils to ensure communication between staff and the university.
