The Board of Regents voted on January 18th to approve the permanent positions of Staff Advisor and Staff Advisor-Designate to The Regents. The Staff Advisor Program, approved by The Regents in January 2005, allows for two staff and/or non-Senate academic employees to be selected to participate in open sessions of certain committees of the Board. The Staff Advisors bring the voice and perspective of staff and non-Senate academic employees to deliberations on relevant matters that come before their assigned committees and The Regents.
Three Staff Advisors have served since the program’s inception in 2005. Each Advisor was selected from applicants of eligible UC staff and non-Senate academic employees by President Dynes in consultation with the Chairman of the Board of Regents.
The 2005-06 Staff Advisors were Dave Miller, who participated in meetings of the Committee on Grounds and Buildings, and David Bell, who participated with the Committee on Educational Policy. For 2006-07, at the recommendation of President Dynes, David Miller has continued to serve as Staff Advisor. Lynda Brewer was selected to serve as Staff Advisor Designate. David Miller and Lynda Brewer now are jointly serving on the Committee on Finance and the Committee on Educational Policy.
The current Staff Advisors to The Regents can be contacted at david.miller@ucop.edu, and lynda.brewer@ucop.edu.
The Office of the President has announced a call for nominations for the next Staff Advisor-Designate, who will serve from July 2007 through June 2009. Information about the program, along with the application, will be available on the Staff Advisor website as well as in hard copy at each UC location.
Applications will be accepted through February 28th, 2007.
