The purpose shall be to assist communication between student-athletes and administration and to help members further develop leadership skills, while promoting the opportunity for the exchange of ideas among student-athletes of different sports. Student-athletes should also strive to be "role models" for the Saint Mary's community and the larger community as well. This committee will also be assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience and to offer input on the rules, regulations and policies that affect student-athlete's lives.
