Faculty and Staff Councils
The Faculty Staff Councils at KU are self-governing bodies. The Office of Diversity lists their leadership here as a resource to our campus communities.
Asian and Asian American Faculty Staff Council
We, the Asian and Asian-American Faculty and Staff Council (AAAFSC), serve to advance the professional growth, social support, and full participation of Asians and Asian-Americans at the University of Kansas. We engage these important endeavors with a commitment to affirm individuals, advocate for diversity and equity, and enrich the campus community as consistent with our institutional mission. In order to achieve these purposes, the AAAFSC is a resource for information sharing, networking, and leadership. It is also a forum for facilitating discussion, understanding, and outreach on matters of particular relevance to Asians and Asian-Americans. More information here.
