Staff Council updates from June meeting
by Michelle Saport |
UAA Staff Council Update: June 6, 2019 Meeting
Guest speakers: Keli McGee, Chief Human Resources Officer, Statewide; and Dr. Larry Foster, Professor, Department of Mathematics & Statistics
Keli spoke about the system-wide Human Resources redesign and employee compensation updates.
Dr. Foster discussed a recent study on how students are using the UAA Bookstore. The study found that cost drives student purchases and that more students are purchasing books online or renting books. A report on the results is being drafted and is expected to be completed within a month. The report will also include strategies for updating the UAA Bookstore. If you have questions or would like to make suggestions for the report, please contact Dr. Larry Foster.
