In January 1997, the Lexington campus chancellor charged deans, vice-chancellors, and directors with developing a formal staff advisory group. The College of Agriculture's response was CASLC, College of Agriculture Staff Liaison Committee. It was formed in July 1997 by former Dean C. Oran Little to act as an advisory group to the Dean regarding staff issues. Our first meeting was on July 15, 1997.

UK Employees = 11,000
UK Staff Members = 9,300
College of Agriculture Staff = 1,500

In 2005 the committee renamed itself StaffLINKS since we provide Liaison, Information, News, Knowledge, and Service to the staff of the College of Agriculture and Human Environmental Sciences.

Members of StaffLINKS are selected by their departments or departmental units for a three-year term to provide representation for all staff within the College.

We meet regularly on the second Tuesday, every other month. Special meetings are called to handle urgent issues. Sub-committees are formed as needed.

If you are a staff of the College of Agriculture & Human Environmental Sciences and have concerns related to College or University policy or procedures, you are invited to contact any of the representatives.
