Student Advisory Group

Return to SBL Committees

The purpose of the Student Advisory Group (SAG) is to coordinate student participation across all Society activities, committees, and programs in an effort to foster greater opportunities for student participation and leadership development. SAG is coordinated by SBL staff members and led by a group of student members. SAG is supported by a delegation of On-campus Student Representatives (OSRs) who are responsible for disseminating information to the SBL members on their campuses and for communicating the concerns of the student members to SBL and SAG.

We encourage students to utilize the SAG listserve as a way to network with fellow student members, share their experiences in academics and professional development, ask questions, and leave suggestions for ways in which SBL and SAG can better serve the needs of our student members.

Please contact Kevin McGinnis if you have questions or would like to volunteer to become an On-campus Student Representative.

Activities 
 
All students are encouraged to attend the SBL Annual Meetings. There are always student oriented lectures and events planned in the Student Member Lounge area. In the past, students have participated in events such as How to Interview, Orientation to the SBL Annual Meeting for First-time Attendees, Alternative Careers, Getting Published, Earning a Ph.D. in a Foreign Country and how to prepare a proposal. The Student Member Lounge is also a place “away from it all” for students to relax with other students.
