About UWTSA
The
University of Washington Tacoma Staff Association (UWTSA)
facilitates communication among UWT classified and professional
staff and librarians and between staff, faculty and administrators on campus-wide issues. The UWTSA also seeks to unify staff
at UW Tacoma to enhance the working experiences and ability of staff to
contribute to the larger campus community. The UWTSA does not deal
directly with personnel issues specific to individuals or individual
job categories represented by other professional organizations.
The UWTSA is officially recognized by UW Tacoma but is self-supporting and does not receive funding from the university.
All
UW Tacoma staff members, including non-academic directors, are automatically
members of the UWT Staff Association. There are no membership dues
and participation is voluntary. Information about UWTSA activities
is sent out via e-mail on the "uwtstaff" line.
Meeting schedule
UWTSA holds quarterly meetings and all staff and librarians are encouraged to attend. An e-mail is usually sent a few days in advance to announce the meeting agenda. Meetings last one hour.
