Allegheny's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is also joining the other SAAC groups from around the Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) in a
Change War against the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC).

The philanthropy of the PAC and NCAC has generated over $38,100 over the past eight years.
