Kimberly Slavsky serves as operational data lead in the Department of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, at CU Anschutz. Another key role of hers: co-chair of the University of Colorado Staff Council (UCSC), the systemwide shared governance group representing employees from the four campuses and system administration. "I participate in shared governance to ensure staff perspectives are heard in decisions that affect policies, resources and workplace culture," she said. "It’s about advocating for fairness and inclusivity for staff."
Higher education must remain a critical investment for the state of Colorado, even in the face of a daunting $800 million state budget shortfall. This was the prevailing message of CU President Todd Saliman and the university’s shared governance leaders who testified last week before the state’s Joint Budget Committee (JBC) at its annual hearing on higher education.
