What is the purpose of the Academic Advisory Committee?
- Bring forth academic concerns to the institution and/or SAIT Academic Council as a collective body
- Provide student feedback on academic issues that are brought forward
- Plan and strategize ways to respond to academic issues that affect SAIT students
