Mission
The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is a partnership of the student-athletes representing all 14 varsity sports at Seton Hall University, focusing on a variety of areas which impact student welfare. SAAC has four major areas of concentration; encouraging school spirit, creating and enhancing an all-encompassing Seton Hall student-athlete family experience, increasing community involvement, and organizing and executing community outreach initiatives such as the annual Mary Jennings Softball Tournament. Annually, the SAAC elects an executive board, establishing a leadership group that presides over this wide range of organizational functions. In addition, SAAC acts as a collective voice by providing input regarding proposed legislation at the institutional, BIG EAST and NCAA levels.

THE SAAC MISSION

To provide student-athlete support for all intercollegiate athletics programs at the University.
To encourage active student participation in University community events.
To uphold the tradition, philosophy and student-athlete "code-of-conduct"
To establish a process for student-athlete participation in community service projects.
To develop leaders among the student-athlete population.
To create a connection between the students and student-athletes of Seton Hall University

Membership Info
Participation in the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is open to all academically and athletically eligible student-athletes from Seton Hall's 14 varsity programs. The committee is comprised of four elected executive officers (President, Vice President, Secretary and Public Relations) and a board of representatives. It is mandated that each NCAA-recognized sports team have a presence on the committee, and as such, the Seton Hall Athletics staff annually appoints two representatives from each program.

Members not appointed may also join to participate in SAAC events and meetings, but may have limited actions such as the inability to vote.
