Student-Athlete Advisory Committee

Purpose

The purpose of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is to serve as liaisons between the athletic administration, university and student-athletes.  The members of SAAC act as the voice of the student-athletes and disseminate information to their respective teams as well as bring student-athlete concerns to the administration.  SAAC is the vehicle for student-athletes to improve upon student-athlete welfare, as well as to help coordinate community service, life-skills and various other activities for the athletic department.

Representation

Each team must have at least two SAAC members.  Each team should choose their representatives and consideration should be given to class status, academic status, and overall leadership characteristics.  At least one representative from each team must be present at each meeting unless academic and athletic conflicts prevent them from doing so.
