OU Staff Week
The University of Oklahoma Staff Week is an annual week-long celebration honoring University staff for their many contributions on and off campus. This year, Staff Week will be held April 25-29 and it kicks off with our first ever Staff Spirit Week!
The Staff Week Committee, with support from the Staff Senate, prepares months in advance to make the week’s events a great time. Staff Week has the support of the Board of Regents, President Harroz, and the City of Norman. While some things have changed the committee has worked hard to keep some of your favorite events!
And all week, we’ll be asking YOU to help the OU Food Pantry by donating to them or using the QR Code that will link you to more information, and their linktr.ee! Did you know, the OU Food Pantry helps hundreds of students, staff, faculty EVERY Week?
