Committee Update

Greetings!

I hope you are enjoying summer on your campuses. Whether summer is your busiest season or a chance for a break from the bustle of the fall and spring, I hope you take a moment to reflect on the work you have done and the impact it has had on students' success on your campus.

As one of the Members At Large on the SACSA EC, I work primarily with transition efforts, coordinating SACSA's EC and Committee Member Transition Reports, as well as assisting with EC & Committee Chair transition at the annual conference. In addition to the this project: I, along with the other Members At Large, serve to represent the membership. I hope you consider sending along any SACSA feedback you have to any of us. See you in Myrtle Beach!

Sincerely,
Christina Wan
