William N. Pennington Student Achievement Center

The Student Achievement Center (SAC) brings together vital student centers scattered throughout campus and in cramped quarters under one roof. This facility encourages interaction among students, staff and faculty of all backgrounds by providing gathering spaces and centers that are open and accessible to every member of the campus community.

Through interactive and interconnected programming opportunities, the SAC completes the academic experiences of students who seek to become academically stronger with the direction, skills and knowledge to tackle today’s complex society.

It allows for these support networks to be interconnected, fostering engagement, collaboration and, ultimately, higher student retention rates and timelier paths to graduation. The SAC allows the University to continue to foster a culture of academic excellence.
