Student Advocacy Committee Representatives
2 Class Positions (Fall Election)
2 Mulholland Positions (Spring Election)

This position is open to two First Years (elected in the Fall during First Year class elections) and two rising Third Years (elected in the Spring by the entire student body). Student members of the Student Advocacy Committee represent their class on a Committee consisting of students from all four classes as well as key faculty/staff from the Medical School. The Student Advocacy Committee is responsible for hearing, evaluating, and acting on reports of abuse of medical students. Reports include sexism, racism, sexual and racial harassment, racial discrimination, verbal abuse, or other types of unprofessional or offensive behavior directed at students.

A more detailed description can be found at the SAC website.

The Committee has two goals:

  1. To investigate complaints and negotiate solutions.
  2. To improve the professional climate for learning in the School.
Students that are elected to the committee represent their classes through graduation. Elected students may also serve in other leadership positions in the University or Medical School (i.e. you may sit on this committee and hold other positions).

Students who hold this position may also hold another Mulholland or class position.
