Important Action Items and Issues

1. I (President Alexander) am working diligently to get a Civility Clause put in place in order to protect staff from any incidents with students or their parents. Currently, to my knowledge, there are no policies or clauses put in place to prevent these reoccurring issues from happening across campus.
2. The senate is working to get the sick time share posted on KSU news. This will help staff know who has the sick leave in their sick time bank to donate to another staff members if there is a need.
3. We are working with SODEXO to get food delivered to staff around campus. Current issues being faced include not having enough staff members or reliable students to deliver food and difficulty in getting the scanning system up and running.
4. Staff are being overworked & underpaid. Staff members are taking on multiple jobs to keep certain departments afloat due to shortages of staff in the workplace. Staff members are not being paid for doing these jobs but are becoming more stressed.
5. Holidays that have were on the calendar have now been taken off and those off-days were used for staff to re-group and come back refreshed.
