Pacific Student-Athlete Advisory Committee

 
2023-24 PSAAC Executive Board  Our Mission: 
Our mission is to serve as liaisons between student-athletes population, athletic department, WCC, and NCAA on issues involving the overall welfare of student-athletes.
 
What is PSAAC?  
The Pacific Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is a NCAA nationally recognized student-run organization that at Pacific is the voice of the student-athletes. PSAAC has two voting representatives from each of the intercollegiate teams. All student-athletes are welcome to attend committee meetings and should contact a representative with interest or inquiries. At the meetings, representatives discuss matters affecting student-athlete life and welfare, learn more about NCAA and conference rules, and plan events. The Senior Associate Director of Athletics for Student-Athletes Services and Compliance, Assistant Director of Athletics for Business Operations, Director of Student-Athlete Development, and Coordinator for Student-Athlete Development serve as staff advisors to the Council.
 
Community Service/Outreach Program
Intercollegiate Athletics has its own community service and outreach program for giving back to the community. A major focus of PSAAC is organizing community service and outreach projects and coordinating student-athlete involvement in those events. They address issues of student-athlete welfare and are committed to providing public service and improving the quality of life in local communities. PSAAC is instrumental in organizing annual Athletics participation in Rotary Read-In and Adopt-A-Family program.
 
Along with other outreach events, every year PSAAC organizes and hosts Pacific Sports Day; local elementary school classes are invited to the Pacific campus to learn about sportsmanship and being part of a team while getting to know and learn from Tiger student-athletes. In addition to the outreach activities coordinated by and/or through the Pacific Student-Athlete Council, most of Pacific's individual teams conduct their own outreach programs. The teams visit local elementary schools, make presentations, read to children, volunteer at community events, etc.

How to Join? 
All Pacific student-athletes are welcome to attend the monthly PSAAC meetings. For more information about meeting dates and times, contact our PSAAC president Rosie Schweizer or your team representative.
