 Prairie View A&M Student Athlete Advisory Committee

 

Student-Athlete Advisory Committee Overview

 

The PVAMU Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is the voice of the student-athlete on campus. The SAAC supplies essential feedback to the athletics department and other campus organizations in order to increase student-athlete welfare. The committee provides recommendations on proposed conference and NCAA legislation and addresses national issues that may concern student-athletes. It also strives to make the Prairie View A&M experience positive by providing opportunities to recognize student-athletes for academic achievements, promoting school spirit at sporting events, and providing ways to interact with the community.

 

Mission: The mission of SAAC is to:

 

  1. Provide a reliable contact and liaison between the University athletic department and the varsity athletic teams that represent Prairie. View A&M University
  2. Bring the opinions and concerns for the student-athletes to the attention of the Athletics Director and members of the athletics departments’ administration.
  3. Represent the University varsity athletics programs in the campus and community.
  4. Develop a sense of pride and unity between all members of all teams.

The SAAC is comprised of two members from each varsity sports team. It meets twice a month to discuss upcoming events, various topics concerning the student-athlete, and any impending legislation that is relevant. The PVAMU SAAC also selects one member from the committee annually to attend the SWAC SAAC meetings and to participate on the monthly conference calls. These meetings are crucial in order for the conference to hear the point of view of Prairie View A&M when considering proposals. The conference meetings are also used to gather ideas for possible projects to implement at Prairie. View A&M University
