The Staff Advisory Committee (SAC) is a collective contributing body to the College’s shared governance structure. The SAC: 1) provides a voice for staff to reflect on general issues related to college operations and their effective delivery, not otherwise addressed within departmental procedures; and 2) creates and sustains a spirit of community and collegiality.
SAC leadership can be reached at [email protected].
