Whitworth University

The Whitworth 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 Whitworth.

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

Goals: 

• Encourage more cross-sport attendance at Whitworth athletic events and SAAC events. 
• Increase cross-sport interaction
• Increase overall student engagement

National SAAC Mission: The mission of the National Student-Athlete Advisory Committees is to enhance the total student-athlete experience by promoting opportunity, protecting student-athlete welfare and fostering a positive student-athlete image.
