Advisor: Marlena Wright, Sports Information Director (marlena.wright@udc.edu) 

What is SAAC? DII SAAC: Make it Yours

UDC SAAC Mission Statement

UDC SAAC is a committee made up of student-athlete representatives formed to provide insight on the student-athlete experience and to offer input on the rules, regulations, and policies that affect student-athletes’ lives on campus. The campus student-athlete advisory committee is an excellent driving force to enhance the total student-athlete experience by promoting opportunity, communication and to foster a positive student-athlete image.

 

Expectations

  1. At all time, SAAC members must keep their teams informed and educated about relevant issues discussed during SAAC Meetings. Must act as leaders and liaisons within their teams.
  2. Must adhere to deadlines when submitting and responding to all forms of correspondence from staff and other SAAC members.
  3. Attend meetings. However, exceptions are made for commitments that conflict with timing.
  4. Promote the athletic department and all of its various entities.
  5. Know, understand, and follow the SAAC by-laws.
