The goal was to create a nationally recognized committee to provide an enhanced platform for feedback and learning. The National Collegian of Year serving their second year on the Board of Directors, currently Brennen Feder, serves as committee chair. The CAC currently comprises 29 members, with representation from each of the five provinces, including the two current National Collegians of the Year.

The Committee’s duties are defined as such:

• Facilitating communication and feedback for collegiate chapters, and reporting and making recommendations to the Board as required to improve collegiate chapter operations and programs.
• Enabling communication and feedback related to collegiate members’ experiences and the Fraternity’s strategic initiatives, and reporting and making recommendations to the Board as required to improve the overall collegiate experience.
• Collaborating with other national committees to align programs, activities and recommendations with the needs of collegiate members and chapters.
• Supporting the Board by providing the collegiate perspective and recommendations as needed on various topics.
• Serving as a resource as needed to Central Office staff, the Board, national committees and provincial and regional leadership teams to convey the collegiate voice, assist in making decisions, develop programs and execute responsibilities.
