GREETINGS FROMTHE STUDENT ADVISORY COUNCIL (SAC)!
T
his month we have two topics of interest: 1) the SAC has opened recruitment
for the coming year and we encourage any interested parties to apply; 2) we
are interested in hearing from all student chapters so as to better serve you!

hapters
The SAC is contacting student chapters to develop and enhance
connections between them and the national organization.
Members of the SAC are evaluating the current state of ASPRS
Student Chapters nationwide in an effort to register new
chapters, revive old ones, and connect with active chapters.
To achieve this, the SAC is implementing a registration and
performance review program.
If you would like to learn more about the program, please
contact
The SAC is currently recruiting members for inclusion in this
vibrant student organization! SAC is a great way to become
more involved in ASPRS by participating in planning and
executing student activities for the annual conference, and
reaching out to campus chapters year round. We encourage
all students to apply! The new term starts after the annual
conference in February in Denver.
