The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) was formed with the purpose to enhance the overall student-athlete experience at Temple University.
The mission of the SAAC is to:
- Communicate information to student-athletes;
- Foster a positive image among student-athletes and intercollegiate athletics to the campus and local communities;
- Provide the voice of student-athletes to present and address concerns and issues to athletics administrators;
- Assist with the coordination of CHAMPS/Life Skills programs and community service projects
The committee, organized through the Office of Compliance and Student Services, is comprised of two representatives from each of the varsity teams. The SAAC members are selected by the head coach at the beginning of the academic year and the entire group is reviewed by the Academics/Compliance Committee ( the committee comprised of Athletic Administrators and the Faculty Athletic Representative) to assure the voice all student-athletes will be represented - paying particular attention to minority involvement and leadership opportunities.
The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee meetings occur monthly (3rd Tuesday) of the academic year. The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is co-chaired by three elected student-athletes. In addition, two elected SAAC members will represent Temple University on the Atlantic 10 Conference Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.
All Student-Athletes, please visit our webpage frequently for up-to-date information regarding programs and events, and community service projects! If you have an issue or concern you would like to present to the SAAC, please contact your team representative or email Alexiss Robinson, Asst Director, at
