Parker Griffith

The candidate was presented with the following questions. The responses are printed as received and have not been edited by Staff Congress.

1. Why would you like to serve on Staff Congress?
Murray State is a great place to work, but improvements can always be made. I believe as someone who has never served on the staff congress, I can bring a fresh perspective. For example, every day hundreds, if not, thousands of dollars leave our campus when staff and faculty go somewhere else for lunch. I believe with some effort a better plan could be worked out that would allow staff and faculty to eat on campus at an affordable price and keep those dollars on campus, rather than the current system that is in place.

2. Please list work experience and community involvement. I have worked in the sports information industry for over 10 years and have worked at Murray State for almost five. During that time, I have served as a CASA volunteer and my wife and I are currently foster parents.

Parker is a candidate in the Executive/Managerial/Professional category.
