Student Advisory Council

The School of Education Student Advisory Council (SAC) seeks to provide an avenue in which undergraduate students will find community, grow their own leadership skills, implement programs, affect positive change within the School of Education, and collaborate with faculty, staff, and departmental leadership.

All School of Education students are encouraged to apply for the Student Advisory Council. Applications for the 2023-2024 school year will open in the spring of 2023.

Please contact Maddy_Woodford1@baylor.edu with any further questions.
