The Communications Committee is dedicated to facilitating and improving communication between Staff Council and campus. We coordinate campus communication via our monthly newsletter, website, social media, and other forums.
What We Do
The Communications Committee plays a key role in keeping University of Utah staff informed and connected.
- Monthly Newsletter: We reach over 40,000 staff and faculty with important updates, upcoming events, and opportunities across campus.
- Website Management: We ensure the Staff Council website stays current with event details, award applications, and an up-to-date roster, serving as the central hub for all council activities.
Through clear, timely communication, we foster engagement and awareness across the university community
