SAAB - Student Academic Affairs Board

SAAB is a unique form of student government at Lewis & Clark College, and was one of the first such boards in the United States when it was established in 1982. SAAB is responsible for formulating student policy on academic issues on campus, granting funds for student-initiated research, answering student requests to bring noted scholars from around the U.S. and abroad to Lewis & Clark, sending students to conferences to present academic work and papers, and coordinating a student tutoring program which is available to all students.
 
  The 2007-08 SAAB rep for the Economics Department is Scott Cheesewright

The Board is chaired by the Vice President for Student Academic Affairs and consists of one representative from every academic department on campus, plus representatives from undeclared majors, students within the self-designed major program and students from ISALC.

SAAB TUTOR PROGRAM

Please note that the (SAAB) economics tutors are hand selected by the faculty at the beginning of each new academic year and again before spring semester. These students must meet criteria such as the required GPA and economics courses completed. Students who feel they are qualified and interested in being a tutor must seek approval by the faculty. They are to provide an unofficial transcript showing the courses completed and have at least a GPA of 3.5 in these courses. The department will contact the SAAB office to apprise them of a student's qualification.
