JCSU Hosts CIAA-SAAC Action Academy
October 25, 2005
CHARLOTTE, NC – The Central Intercollegiate Athletic
Association (CIAA) sponsored the 3rd annual Student Athlete
Advisory Committee (SAAC) Action Academy hosted on the campus of
Johnson C. Smith University. Over 40 students from neighboring
Livingstone College, Winston-Salem State University, Johnson C.
Smith University and St. Paul’s College learned speaking and
interview skills during the four hour event.
The students also had a chance to mingle with one and other and
find out about issues related to their sports on their respective
campuses. The speakers for the day were the husband and wife team
of Susan Castorino and Randy Minkoff from nationally recognized
“The Speaking Specialists”. The Speaking Specialists
used an interactive format of question and answer sessions, mock
interviews, and panel discussions to educate the young leaders in
attendance.
A student-athlete advisory committee (SAAC) is a committee made up
of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the
student-athlete experience. The SAAC also offers input on the
rules, regulations and polices that affect student-athletes' lives
on NCAA member institution campuses.
The next CIAA-SAAC Action Academy will be held at Bowie State
University, tomorrow, October 26, 2005 in Bowie, MD.
