About Us
Purpose
Our stated purpose is “To invigorate and sustain the sense of community established among colleagues during their careers at California State University, Sacramento.” In other words - To keep in touch and enjoy each other's company.
Organization
Membership is open to all Sacramento State retirees. Leadership for the association is vested in the 10-member Board, elected by the membership in an annual meeting. We have a representative on the Faculty Senate, a means of keeping the campus aware of our interests. We are affiliated with the statewide California State University Emeritus and Retired Faculty Association, CSU-ERFA, which works to protect retiree benefits.
History
We were founded 26 years ago as the CSUS Emeritus Association, with the endorsement of President Don Gerth (who is currently a member of the association). Initially a faculty group, the association now welcomes both faculty and staff retirees. The association originated campus policies for retiree rights and privileges that are still in effect today.
