In an effort to increase participation in our UTW committees, we have decided that all standing committees, pro-rep meetings, and executive board meetings will take place on Mondays unless there is a holiday conflict.
This was something that has been done in the past, but for various reasons it stopped being a common practice, and we really feel that if members can know well in advance about these meetings, that we'll have better participation.
Here is a handy page on our website that details each committee and the chair/co-chair to contact if you would like to participate: https://utw-ks.org/utw-standing-committees/
Alternatively, you can send the office an email (info@utw-ks.org) or join the corresponding committee group on NEA Edcommunities for the virtual meeting instructions.
Since we have seven standing committees, the only feasible way we can make UTW Mondays a reality is by having some committees meet simultaneously on the last Monday of the month.
