What is a SAAC?

SAAC stands for Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. SAACs are groups composed of student-athletes who provide insight on the student-athlete experience and offer input on the rules, regulations, and policies that affect student-athletes' lives at their institutions and within their athletic conferences. Members of SAACs help foster communication between student-athletes and athletic department administration, promote a positive student-athlete image, and often participate in community service activities. These committees exist at the institutional, conference, and national levels in collegiate athletics.
