The Student Academic Affairs Board (SAAB) is a unique part of your student government, the Associated Students of Lewis & Clark (ASLC). Created in 1982, SAAB is composed of one student representative from each academic department. The Board meets weekly to discuss issues of academic importance to the student body: curriculum matters, the academic calendar, the senior capstone/keystone experience, faculty retention, general education requirements, etc. Additionally, SAAB sponsors a campus-wide tutoring program, in which students can receive two free hours of tutoring per week per department. 

 

SAAB also sponsors a competitive grant program for the following:

• Student Motivated Research
• Attendance at Conferences
• Visiting Scholar Programs
• Performances or Artistic Displays

 

SAAB’s weekly meetings for the Spring 2012 semester are held on Mondays at 6:00 PM in J.R. Howard Hall room 102. Email saab@lclark.edu with questions or concerns.

It is highly recommended, though not required, that applicants meet with the SAAB chair prior to beginning the application process.

Chair hours for Spring 2012:

Mondays 3:00-6:00, Wednesdays 1:00-3:00

 

Due dates for applications:

Visiting Scholar and Conference Grants- Mondays at 5 PM.

Please note that for Arts & Expression and Research grants SAAB has one deadline each semester.  If interested students do not submit completed proposals by the aforementioned dates, they must wait until the following semester’s deadline to apply for funds.

Deliver completed applications to either the Chair or the Vice Chair in the SAAB office, located in the ASLC Suite, on the middle floor of Templeton. If neither the Chair or Vice Chair is available, place the application on the SAAB desk and send a confirmation email to saab@lclark.edu. If the office door is locked, slide your application under the door and send a confirmation email to saab@lclark.edu.
