Student Center Complex Advisory Council (SCCAC)
The SCCAC derives its informal authority to make policy recommendations from the students of the University of Miami in accordance with the resolution passed by the University of Miami students in March 2006 and submitted to the President of the University of Miami on April 3, 2006, stating in part:
“An advisory board for the Student Center, to include undergraduate, graduate, and law students and to be chaired by a student, will be created to provide guidance in establishing policies for building use.”
Student Organization Kiosk and/or Storage Space
The SCCAC allows student organizations to apply for kiosk and/or storage space in the Student Organization Suite of the Shalala Student Center. Spaces are extremely limited, and interested organizations must complete a thorough application process.
The SCCAC is not accepting applications at this time.
Student Organization Office Space
Every three years, the SCCAC allows student organizations to apply for designated office space in the Student Organization Suite of the Shalala Student Center or in the International Lounge of the Whitten University Center. Office spaces are extremely limited, and interested organizations must complete a thorough application process.
