SEA Elections Season is Around the Corner, Time to Start Thinking about 2022-2023 SEA Board Positions
It's hard to believe that we're more than half-way through the 2021-22 fiscal year. And that means it's almost time to seek candidates to run for our open Board positions for FY 2022-2023. Unless otherwise noted, positions are a two-year commitment and open to any USU benefited staff member regardless of campus location. (All regular meetings are also offered via Zoom or over IVC.)
- President Elect (3 year term)
- Treasurer, Junior (must meet minimum requirements)
- Secretary, Junior
- Benefits & Staff Welfare Committee, Incoming (3 year term)
- Employee Development Committee, Junior
- Employee Recognition Committee, Junior
- Employee Scholarship Committee, Junior
- Legislative Committee, Junior
- Media & Public Relations Committee, Junior
- Statewide Campus & Extension Committee, Junior (must be located on a Statewide campus or Extension office)
As a change this year, staff members can only declare their own candidacy for open positions. If you are considering throwing your hat into the ring as a candidate, please talk to your supervisor to get their support for your potential extra service commitment.
If you know of someone you feel would be a good candidate for one of the open positions on the board, please either reach out to them directly, or complete the form on this page, encouraging them to consider running for a specific position and declare their candidacy.
Declaring your candidacy should not be made lightly, as there is a regular time commitment and in some cases a heavier commitment during certain times of the year. You can review requirements and estimated time commitments on our Get Involved page.
- The name of the position for which you want to run.
- A brief introductory statement (1-2 paragraphs) about why you are interested in the position, the experience you bring to the table, etc.
Please note that USU Eastern Chapter representatives are managed according to chapter procedures.
