The Caldwell University student-athlete advisory committee (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. The SAAC also offers input on the rules, regulations and polices that affect student-athletes' lives on NCAA member institution campuses. Each sport at Caldwell University is represented by two student-athletes on the SAAC, which also has an executive board and is overseen by Assistant Athletic Director Christie Conforti and Head Athletic Trainer/SWA Heather Arabitg.
 

Caldwell University's SAAC is involved in community service, community engagement, campus events, charities and other activities.
