 An A&S Staffing Request form (rev. August 2024), including supporting employment documentation, must be submitted to the Dean’s Office with Cc to Rob and Shirley Rey for all Regular, Term, Temporary, and On-call positions funded by non-I&G money. This request must be completed for all Staff changes to FTE before an ePAF is processed.  It is NOT required for Faculty and/or Student (Grad/Undergrad) employment transactions.
