Annual SAB Program

Each year, the SAB is at the helm of one of the Dole Institute’s evening programs. The SAB Program is typically a balanced discussion of a timely, hot-button issue that is important to students. SAB members, with the help of Dole Institute staff, carry out the functions of planning the event from development to promotion and execution. The SAB program is complete with a private pre-event dinner for SAB members to dine and talk with guest speakers.
