Distance and Extended Learning Student Advisory Committee

DELSAC is a student-focused advisory committee overseen by Online and Extended Programs

The Distance and Extended Learning Student Advisory Committee (DELSAC) recommends to Online and extended programs (OXP) ways to improve distance learning programs and services. This committee works towards service improvement through collaborative efforts with the office staff of OXP.
