All college support staff members are encouraged to attend the Spring Support Staff meeting. Two important items on the agenda include a compensation discussion with Jim Mulholland, Assistant Treasurer, who will explain how compensation is determined (merit/market), where he gets the market data, what pay grades are, etc. The second item on the agenda will be the election of new members to the Support Staff Relations Committee (SSRC).
Angie Story will also be present to talk about Office 2007 summer workshops to be held in June.
Open positions for the SSRC are two 2-year, one 1-year, and one 1-year alternate. The committee is the representative organization “to expand communication with the administration,” is “responsible for coordinating general meetings and staff luncheons,” and “is concerned with working conditions and general benefits at the College” for staff members. Working on the committee also provides leadership opportunities, service to the college community, and expands one’s knowledge of the College. The committee meets one hour per month. Candidates must have been employed by the College for at least one year. If you have topics to discuss or are interested in serving on next year’s SSRC, please contact Terri Phipps, phippst@grinnell.edu or ext. 3460.
