The Events Committee coordinates activities for the entire University of Utah community. These events enhance employee experience and raise funds for staff development awards.
Goals 2024-25
Our committee goals for the year:
- Include as many staff in events as possible, and strive to create a positive atmosphere in any events we are invited to participate in
- Reach out to as many people as possible, whether that is on campus or off and include them in the staff council community
- Create relationships with others that can include off-campus events (Hockey games, Ute Football games, etc) that can include promotions for staff to enjoy
- Have fun being University of Utah Staff, even if it can be more fun on the Staff Council 😊
