2017-2018 Student Advisory Committee Applications

2017-2018 Student Advisory Committee Applications 

The Student Advisory Committee (SAC) was formed in 1970 and reports directly to the Grand High Zeta. SAC was formed to help the Lambda Chi Alpha staff and the Grand High Zeta stay in touch with current undergraduate concerns and problems, and allow undergraduates to communicate directly with Lambda Chi Alpha’s highest levels of international authority.

SAC plays a vital role in Lambda Chi Alpha’s ability to remain on top of the fraternal world. SAC has developed and helped pass almost all of the significant legislation inside Lambda Chi Alpha including: the alcohol policy, the anti-hazing policy, associate membership, higher academic standards, and the creation of minimum operating standards for chapters.

Each Conclave is represented by a SAC member, selected by the Grand High Alpha. The SAC members serve a one year term, starting on August 1 and running through the following 2018 General Assembly.
