Staff Council Representatives
What are Staff Council Zones?
The introduction of the Staff Council communication zones is new. The purpose of the zones is to break the campus down into manageable areas that allow Staff Council members to work more effectively and communicate with ISU staff. The zones also allow Staff Council members to learn about areas outside of those they are familiar with, understand the campus better, discover additional communication streams, and develop new relationships. If you are located on the Pocatello main campus, we encourage you to use this map and reach out to your Staff Council zone liaison to learn more. Below is more information about Staff Council representatives located outside of Pocatello.
