To ensure we are meeting the needs of today’s Tulane employees, the Staff Advisory Council has convened an ad hoc committee to review the council’s mission and structure during AY 23-24. Information on the SAC website may not be up to date during this time.

Staff Acknowledgements

Staff Appreciation

Each year SAC co-hosts staff appreciation events with Human Resources. Recent events have included free snowballs with President Fitts and a Staff Appreciation Day at a home football game. Stay tuned for events for 2021-2022.

Each year SAC also co-hosts a recognition event with Human Resources for Tulane staff members celebrating anniversary years ending in '0s and '5s. Invitations are mailed from Human Resources to those staff members who had an anniversary date in the previous calendar year.
