Towson University Staff Council (TUSC)

As a result of strong campus-wide interest, the Towson University Staff Council (TUSC) was formed by the President in 1993. Intended to serve as an advisory body to the President's Staff on non-faculty matters, the Council offers all staff an opportunity to express ideas and concerns and provides a means for assessing campus opinion on important staff issues.

The Towson University Staff Council (TUSC) is the advocate body for all University staff employees. Through its advisory role with the University President, TUSC seeks to further the prominence of the University by promoting the value and talents of its staff employees. It further means to act as a communication channel between the President and the University staff, and advise on matters relating to staff, the work environment, and, in general, the welfare of the University as a whole.

Welcome from the Chair

Greetings from the TU Staff Council

To All TU Staff:
My name is Tony Rosas, Chair of the Towson University Staff Council, or TUSC for short. I want to give you some insight to TUSC, who we are, and how we represent campus staff.

The primary function of TUSC is to be the voice of staff on campus. TUSC represents the interests of all staff, all categories, all departments, exempt and non-exempt, full-time and part-time. If you have a concern about parking, pay, benefits or anything else, TUSC works as your liaison between staff and University leadership, TUSC provides recommendations on all issues affecting staff BEFORE becoming official policies.

TUSC exists to keep you informed. This year we want to introduce two new methods for providing information. A monthly e-mail newsletter will be available simply by an "opt in" action on your part. TUSC is also developing an online discussion board, allowing all employees of the campus community, faculty and staff alike, access to a discussion forum where we can express opinions in an open environment.

If you would like to join our mailing list please follow the link to the Towson University list serve site, https://sympa.towson.edu/sympa , and subscribe to tuscnewsletter@lists.towson.edu.

Thank You,
Tony
