Committees
Our committees are responsible for portfolios across all aspects of the school, from academics to student life. Each year, committees establish priorities, implement projects, and host events to benefit the SALA community.
The Council leads high-level visioning for the school and oversees school-wide affairs. Chairs advise and assist the Director on academic and administrative policies and initiatives of concern to the SALA community. The Council recommends agendas for SALA meetings and retreats.
