  • Serve as the representative body for the staff employees of the university;
  • Provide an additional channel of communication for staff with administration and faculty; 
  • Assist the administration with advice, as needed, on policy issues relevant to the staff;
  • Address concerns of the general staff population and seek improvement of staff work environment, conditions, and processes;
  • Foster a spirit of unity and cooperation.

About Our Committees

Staff Council committees serve as the working arms of the Council, allowing us to take action on key areas that impact staff across Lindenwood. These committees are responsible for organizing initiatives, gathering input, and advancing efforts aligned with our mission to represent, support, and celebrate staff members.

Each committee focuses on a specific area of responsibility and are re-evaluated annually to ensure they reflect the evolving needs of our campus community.

All Staff Council members participate in at least one committee, and additional staff members are welcome to serve as voting members within these groups. If youÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ™re interested in learning more or getting involved with a committee, reach out to your departmentÌÇÐÄvlogÊÓÆµ™s Council representative or contact the Chair for the committee you are interested in.
