About PSO

Professional Staff are the institutional memory of the University of Washington. Through our commitment to education and public service, we support the mission of the university and serve its faculty and students and, ultimately, the people of Washington State.

The Professional Staff Organization (PSO) represents the issues and concerns of professional staff to the university administration, the campus, and our local community. All professional staff are members of PSO.

Established in 1990, PSO provides information to legislators, represents professional staff on the faculty councils and univeristy committees ranging from academics to facilities, and works to improve communication and build camaraderie among the professional staff throughout the university system. The PSO also collaborates with the UW administration on other issues relevant to professional staff.

To stay in touch with our members, we host meetings for staff in autumn and spring quarters, often with professional staff as speakers, to talk candidly and collegially about issues at the university. We also publish a biannual newsletter and award scholarships to help our members pursue professional development opportunities.

PSO is supported solely by voluntary dues and contributions. Find out about how you can contribute on our membership page.

For information about our history and priorities, see our strategic plan.
