The Senior Associate Athletic Director shall be the liaison with the SAAC, and the group shall meet at least monthly.

The Student-Athlete Advisory Council serves as the collective voice for all student-athletes at UMass Lowell. The general responsibilities of the council are as follows:

• to provide input into the operational procedures that affect student-athletes (dining hall and housing privileges);
• to develop strategies to better involve student-athletes in community-related activities; and
• to disseminate important information to the other members of their teams.
