Essential emails
As your representative, we need to send you emails about our work on your behalf and, for Voting Members, about opportunities for you to participate and your legal right to vote. We send those emails and other important notices over UW-hosted mailing lists.
Optional emails
We also members a monthly newsletter covering the latest news and events for staff—plus emails about events and special offers available only to members.
These emails are sent through Mailchimp and you can choose what kinds of emails you want to get, and are free to opt out of any or all categories at any time:
- Monthly newsletters: A roundup of all the UWSA news and events, workplace tips, campus resources, upcoming events on campus and in the community, and more.
- UWSA events: Special events from our Fundraising & Social Committee, like private movie screenings, Bingemans trips, and Winterfest, to name a few. You'll also find out about events and initiatives funded by the Staff Excellence Fund!
- Discounts and promotions: Special offers from our corporate partners (such as belairdirect insurance and Perkopolis), exclusive shopping events, Drayton tickets, and more.
- UWSA 101: Educational emails to help you understand the UWSA, UW, your workplace, and coworkers.
To change your email preferences, click "update your preferences" at the bottom of any newsletter or other email sent from us through Mailchimp.
