Welcome to the Staff Senate, one of the ways all non-faculty salaried and non-student wage staff can participate in shared governance at Virginia Tech.

The Senate is made up of elected representatives from each college and administrative area of the university. The Senate usually meets on the third Thursday of each month, from 12:00 noon to 1:00 p.m. in 1810 Litton Reaves Hall on the Blacksburg Campus. All non-faculty salaried and non-student wage staff are welcome to attend any meeting.
