Letter from the Staff Assembly President



Fall General Meeting

Fall quarter is underway and with many iterations of what hybrid work looks like, we're excited to invite you to our General Meeting where CHASS Dean Daryle Williams will discuss his college's Workplace Strategic Flexibility policy, lessons learned since March 2020, and the long-term vision of how and where work is performed. Join us on October 19 either in-person at the University Theatre or on Zoom, if you're working remotely on this date. Register Now!<https://ucr.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CIBlNpRUSTaLt0iooQ2Y3g>

Highlights from Community Partner Fair

Our annual Community Partner Fair<https://insideucr.ucr.edu/stories/2022/09/06/fun-and-prizes-community-partner-fair> concluded recently and it was a HUGE success. We had over 50 vendors - many of them internal campus departments - that came out and shared their products and services with our staff and faculty. This was the first such event since 2019, with close to 400 staff that attended it. We had over 30 staff winners that went home with giveaways, including free parking for the rest of the year!

Shoutout to all the staff volunteers, including our student athletes that were instrumental in helping us achieve our goal.

I would like to thank all the vendors for their participation and commitment to UCR. Please enjoy this short video<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsuAA1TNxGI> that captures some of the highlights.
