Staff Council

The Connecticut College Staff Council's mission is to be recognized as a reliable voice between staff and the administration. The Council solicits and expresses opinions, represents staff concerns, and makes suggestions and recommendations to the administration on behalf of the entire staff. It strives to promote visibility of staff as valuable members of the community and facilitate a sense of belonging within the community. The Staff Council actively seeks to involve all segments of the College's diverse staff through the interaction with other active staff committees as well as all individual staff members.

The Staff Council does not negotiate grievances, labor disputes, wages, rates of pay, or hours of employment. The Employee Handbook addresses the manner in which these topics are administered and managed.

Suggestions and recommendations of the Staff Council are distributed to the Director of Human Resources and the President of the College, as well as the appropriate senior administrator (if deemed relevant), for review and response. Monthly suggestion/recommendation listings, as well as administrators' responses, are posted beside each Staff Suggestion Box located in Harris Dining, Physical Plant, Fanning Hall, the Print Shop, and the Crozier-Williams Student Center next to the Post Office.

Members of the College community may access the Staff Council site if  logged on to CamelWeb, the College intranet, where they may learn the history and accomplishments of the Council, make suggestions, and read the minutes of Staff Council meetings.
