The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) of Canisius University, pledges to pursue academic and athletic excellence as well as to uphold the ideals and values of the Jesuit tradition. We seek to generate a student-athlete voice within the athletic department and the institution, to discuss issues and develop recommendations to enhance the well-being of student-athletes on campus, to solicit student-athlete response to proposed NCAA legislation and/or Conference Legislation and to organize service efforts to promote a positive image within the institution and its surrounding community.
