Months after its recognition within the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s shared governance structure, the Classified Staff Executive Committee will hold elections for a representative campus congress.
The Classified Staff Congress will include one representative from each of the 106 districts that divide classified staff members on campus, as well as one alternate representative from each district.
Classified staff members will vote on representatives within their respective districts. A list of who is in each district, as well as forms for declaring candidacy, will be mailed out to classified staff April 14, according to a UW-Madison release.
“Shared governance is all about having your voice heard in the rooms where the decisions are being made,” CSEC Chair Russell Kutz said in the release. “The more people we have speaking on behalf of classified staff, the sooner our priority issues will be addressed.”
The first round of elections will be in June, with a final round to follow in July.
