Employee Advisory Council (EAC)

The Employee Advisory Council (EAC) represents the employees of Jacksonville University. Through monthly meetings and special events, we promote and advocate for our colleagues and stay connected with senior leadership and the state of the campus.

Membership

All administrative and staff employees of the University are members of the Employee Advisory Council. Membership terminates upon the employee’s separation or termination from employment at Jacksonville University.

The EAC meets monthly to bring important information regarding the campus to the members of the council. We ask that members act as a liaison for their department.  We also will receive information on anything that affects the employees and advocate for the employees with the University administration.  The EAC believes we are family here at Jacksonville University and we are striving to improve communication between all aspects of the campus to make Jacksonville University a better place to work, study and enjoy life.
