With the passage of Staff Senate Act 00001-25 in fall 2025, the Senate formalized its legislative proceedings to promote transparency and provide clear procedural guidance for both the Senate and the broader staff community. This action affirms Staff Senate’s commitment to serving as a strong, deliberative body that advocates for LMU staff and contributes meaningfully to the university’s shared governance.

Staff Senate measures are available for LMU community members to view; you will need to log in to Box with your LMU credentials.

Types of Legislative Measures

A measure is any formal item of business submitted for consideration by Staff Senate. Measures take one of two forms:

  • Resolution: expresses a formal recommendation, request, or position from Staff Senate to the university administration.
  • Act: establishes, amends, or repeals policies, rules, or procedures governing the internal operations of Staff Senate.
