Student-Athlete Advisory Committee

What is SAAC?
The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is comprised of student-athlete representatives from each intercollegiate athletic program. Each committee member is nominated by his/her respective coaching staff. The purpose of the committee is to provide direct input into athletic department decisions that affect student-athletes. The committee meets bi-weekly during the academic year to talk with athletic administrators about issues of interest to student-athletes. The committee is also instrumental in coordinating community outreach programming for student-athletes. The role of each member is to represent his or her team by communicating information to the athletic administration staff and coaches as well assisting with planning of events and communicating information with their teammates.
Mission Statement
To inspire and enhance the total student-athlete experience through promoting opportunities for success, protecting student-athlete welfare, and fostering a positive student-athlete image on campus and in the community.
