Smith College Student Athlete Advisory Committee

Welcome!

As the Student Athletic Advisory Committee (SAAC) President for the 2009-2010 school year, I would like to welcome you to our site and thank you for your support. Over the past few years student athletes all over the Smith College campus have been involved in various community service projects, supporting fellow teams, building faculty and athlete relationships, and much more.

This year representatives from each team will be meeting bi-weekly to discuss topics that are important to us and affect us as student athletes. We will brainstorm new ideas to lend our hand in the community, support causes we believe in, and other ways to better the student athlete experience. As we build on our successes from previous years such as the fall canned food drive, Relay for Life, Pink Zone/WBCA initiative, and faculty mentor program, we also have a number of new goals we hope to achieve.

First, we will work to increase our visibility on Smith campus both as a committee and as members of athletic teams. We hope that in addition to the involvement of members of the committee, we can get more athletes and entire teams to participate in projects and events designed or supported by SAAC. We will work to create closer connections between athletes of different teams, as well as between student athletes and faculty/staff members and the general student body. Lastly, we look forward to coming up with new and creative ways to give back to the community.

On behalf of SAAC, thank you for stopping by and for supporting us as Smith College student athletes. Please check back for updates, photos, and more information on our projects and events!

Proud to be a Pioneer,
