Student-Athlete Advisory Committee

GSU SAAC

About Us: 

Student-athletes have a voice in the NCAA through advisory committees at the campus, conference, and national level. Each committee is made up of student-athletes assembled to provide insight into the student-athlete experience and offer input on the rules, regulations, and policies that affect student-athletes lives on campus.  Members of a campus Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) have the opportunity to address issues affecting student-athletes at their institution; furthermore, members have the opportunity to offer input on issues which may be national in scope. 
 
Many NCAA conferences, including the Mountain East Conference (MEC), have created conference SAACs in order to strengthen the communication between the campus and national committees. Through increased communication and networking, the SAACs hope to better represent the views of all student-athletes. 
 
Division II national SAAC members actively take the lead in addressing issues facing Division II student-athletes such as the development of campus and conference SAACs, Title IX education, faculty/student-athlete relations, and championships enhancements. 

This committee is made up of at least two representatives from every NCAA-sanctioned athletic program and works as a mouthpiece for each members’ respective teams. Listed below are the student-athletes who make up this committee, their title, and the sport(s) they represent. Additional information available are the sub-committees run through SAAC, time and dates of games, past or present projects, and outstanding plays by members of our committee.
