About the SAAC:

The ASU Student-Athlete Advisory Committee membership is composed of two members from each intercollegiate team and cheerleading squad, with one representative from the sports medicine staff.

Concerns can be voiced and solutions offered regarding any issue that may be relevant to student-athletes.
