Salisbury University students on campus

Welcome to the Staff Senate Website

What is the Staff Senate?

The Salisbury University Staff Senate (SUSS) replaced the Staff Advisory Council on July 1, 2000.

Staff Senate is comprised of 16 elected Senators representing non-faculty staff on campus:

  • 6 regular exempt Senators
  • 2 regular non-exempt Senators (not covered by collective bargaining)
  • 2 contingent Senators
  • 6 CUSS representatives

The SUSS makes recommendations directly to the President on issues related to the administration of the University and on the functional support aspects of academic matters. Its responsibility is to consider and make recommendations on university issues affecting non-faculty employees, to communicate employee concerns to the President, and to inform non-faculty employees of the university's related actions.

If you have an issue or concern for the Staff Senate, send us an email at staffsenate@salisbury.edu or to any member of the Executive Committee.
