SUBJECT:

Staff Advisor to The Regents - 2013-15 Application Period

The UC Staff Advisor program, instituted in 2005-2006, is intended to allow the Regents to benefit from hearing staff and non-Senate academic employee perspectives on relevant matters that come before Regents' committees and the Board.

Under the program, the current Staff Advisor Designate will serve as Staff Advisor in 2013-2014. The newly selected Staff Advisor Designate will attend all open session Regents' meetings. Each year, the Advisors will be invited to attend certain other UC events, including Regents' campus visits as well as other activities related to their role as Advisors.

All eligible UC staff and non-Senate academic employees who are interested in serving as the 2013-2014 Staff Advisor Designate to The Regents may apply during the period beginning Tuesday, January 22, 2013 and ending at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 1, 2013. The Staff Advisor Designate will be selected from all eligible UC staff and non-Senate academic employees by President Yudof in consultation with the Chairman of the Board of Regents.

Further information about the Staff Advisor Program, the application form, a complete explanation of eligibility and the application and selection process, and information on the role and responsibilities of the Staff Advisor, can be found under "How to Apply" at:

When reviewing the eligibility criteria, please interpret the "exceeds expectations" performance level to mean the same as the UCSD performance rating of "above expectations" for staff employees or equivalent to performance that supports academic advancement for non-Senate academic employees.
