About Us
The BPC engages in outreach and advocacy efforts on behalf of professional staff, serves as liaison to bring the professional staff prospective to the IUB administration, and disseminates information useful to IU staff members. Here is a brief summary of our main activities:
- We engage in regular monthly meetings, generally the third Wednesday of each month, 3:00 - 5:00 p.m.
- We offer Professional Development Grants to allow staff to attend workshops and conferences.
- We participate in a service project once a year to reach out to those in the Bloomington community who need assistance.
- We publish a bi-monthly e-newsletter highlighting issues and events of concern to professional staff.
- We host forums on timely topics of significance to IU employees.
- We maintain a “Perks” website which lists discounts provided by businesses to IU employees
- We serve on campus committees to make sure the professional staff perspective is given due consideration on a wide range of issues from campus child care to the conditions in which IU-licensed apparel is manufactured.
