Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)

The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) consists of representatives from each intercollegiate team. It is the goal of SAAC to be the student-athlete voice to the athletic administration; provide a bridge between the student-athletes and the Ursuline community; undertake projects which will benefit student-athletes and the community; and to represent Ursuline College student-athletes and what they stand for. All student-athletes are encouraged to speak with their team's representative and get involved in the various projects the group is involved with. In the past, the group has focused on community service and engagement, student-athlete welfare, career development and fellow athletic team support. SAAC continues to grow and gain a more powerful voice. With strong leadership and focus, SAAC will strive to improve the lives of student-athletes on campus and in the community. If you would like to become involved with SAAC and their projects, see your SAAC representative, coach or the Compliance Coordinator.
