For Faculty & Staff
Staff Council General Body Meeting
Thursday, April 17, noon to 1 p.m., Danforth Conference Room (CUC) or Zoom
Staff Council General Body Meetings, held on the third Thursday of each month, are open to all CMU staff members. Current Staff Council events and committee updates are shared. Staff Council provides a forum for staff to voice concerns, make recommendations and propose new ideas. Elected representatives work closely with university administration to address issues and develop best solutions for the majority. Great things can happen when we focus our efforts!
Neurodiverse Employee Resource Group (NERG) Meeting
Tuesday, April 22, noon to 1 p.m., Zoom
This group advocates for and supports neurodiverse people in the CMU community and beyond. “Neurodiversity” is a word used to explain the unique ways people’s brains work. While everyone’s brain develops similarly, no two brains function just alike. Being neurodivergent means having a brain that works differently from the average or “neurotypical” person.
