Calling All Weekly-Paid Staff

The Weekly-Paid Professional Staff Assembly (WPSA), formerly the A-3 Assembly, will hold its annual Board Elections at noon on June 11, in Irvine G-16. All weekly-paid, non-union Penn staff are eligible to vote--you can nominate yourself or another weekly-paid nonunion University employee for the 20-member Board.

The elected Board will then select the Executive Officers--Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary and Treasurer.

At this time the WPSA needs more Board members. Volunteers are also being sought to serve as voting members on University Committees. These committees make recommendations to University Council and Steering (which make decisions on University policies) on such issues as benefits, communications, diversity, parking, to mention just a few.
