A student-athlete advisory committee (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. The SAAC offers input on the rules, regulations and policies that affect student-athletes' lives. There is a SAAC at the institution, conference and national levels. Presently, there are separate national SAACs for NCAA Divisions I, II and III. NCAA legislation mandates that all member institutions have SAACs on their respective campuses. Further, NCAA legislation requires that all member conferences have SAACs. 

The Eastern Mennonite University SAAC is a committee made up of student-athletes chosen to provide insight on the student-athlete experience and promote growth and education through sports participation at EMU. The committee addresses current topics that are of interest to EMU student-athletes and serves as a conduit of communication among student-athletes, coaches and athletic administration. These student-athletes enjoy the responsibility of maintaining a positive leadership role on campus by organizing, promoting and hosting several service projects throughout the year. 

SAAC exists to enhance the athletic experience for both student-athletes and our EMU community by encouraging spiritual development, purposeful relationships, and being a voice for student-athletes.
