The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) serves as the primary governance arm representing
student-athlete interests in Division II affairs. SAAC members serve as student-athlete liaisons
that monitor and discuss happenings on campuses, within conference and at the national level.
Representatives are responsible for gathering feedback and reporting on behalf of their conference, as
well as relaying important events, hot topics and educational information to both the campus and
conference levels. In addition to relaying information across campuses and conferences, the committee
speaks on behalf of the entire Division II student-athlete body throughout the NCAA governance
structure.
Division II SAAC members serve as voting members on a number of Division II committees, including the
Management Council. The SAAC also has voting authority during the Division II Business Session at the
annual NCAA Convention.
Requirement for membership:
Two student athletes from each varsity sports team will be selected by their coaches and/or
administration to represent the Bluefield State SAAC program. Each student athlete must have at least a
3.2 GPA.
