Student Alumni Council

In 1984, the Winthrop Alumni Association established the Student Alumni Council (SAC) to stimulate the interest and participation of students in the progress of the university and to preserve and further the feeling of loyalty and fellowship between the university, students, community and alumni.

From freshmen move-in day through graduation, SAC members serve as the resident "tradition keepers" who promote the spirit, history and tradition of Winthrop and provide opportunities for students to develop into active, engaged citizens and future alumni.

How does SAC support current students and the university?

• Fosters a desire among students to support the university and stimulates interest and concern for its well-being.
• Explains to all students, especially new students, the purposes, benefits and activities of the Winthrop Alumni Association, and shows students ways in which they can support the University following graduation.
• Identifies specific needs of students as they prepare for graduation, and develops programs, which will assist them in making the transition from students to alumni.
• Develops and implements service-oriented programs, which will enable students to contribute to the efforts of the Alumni Association, the Division of University Advancement, other campus departments and the community.
• Engages and educates students and the campus community in the history and traditions of the university.
