Franklin & Marshall College's Student-Athlete Leadership Council (SALC) is a group council made up of approximately 100 student-athlete representatives. SALC aims to provide a platform for student-athletes to create meaningful change both in the Franklin & Marshall and Lancaster community. Through numerous initiatives and events, this organization creates a connection between student-athletes and various campus groups, raises awareness for key issues, and allows Diplomats to share their voice by further developing valuable leadership skills.
Presently, there are separate national SAACs (Student-Athlete Advisory Committee) for NCAA Divisions I, II and III. NCAA legislation mandates that all member institutions have SAACs on their respective campuses. Further, NCAA legislation requires that all member conferences have SAACs.
