-===Recurring Events===
-====Hershey Bar War====
-Starting in 2013, SAAC decided to assist a project of two of their Members, [[Ryan Alexander]] and [[Jillian Alexander]].  Ryan and Jillian are members of the Board of Directors for [https://www.missionofhopepi.com Mission of Hope - Philippines].  The project that they decided to take on was to collect Hershey chocolate bars for the working students providing them with a sweet treat, in addition to the supplies brought by the Mission of Hope team, and often a source of food for the day.  In efforts to collect the most Hershey bars for the cause, they decided to have a friendly competition with the local Collegiate Chapter [[Epsilon Xi]].  The Chapter who collects the most Hershey bars during the allotted time won bragging rights and additional PR via the Mission of Hope - Philippines.  Other Brothers from around the nation are encouraged to participate as well.  Alumni Members may donate bars toward SAAC's total and Collegiate Members may donate bars toward Epsilon Xi's total.
-Totals (Winners of the war are bolded):<br />
-: Total Bars: 596 Epsilon Xi - 251 '''SAAC - 345'''<br />
-: Total Bars: 486 Epsilon Xi - 262 '''SAAC - 224''' Note: Epsilon Xi Chapter would have won this year's war if bars were turned in by the deadline.<br />
-: Total Bars: 917 Epsilon Xi - 392 '''SAAC - 525'''
-: Total Bars: 828 '''Epsilon Xi - 569''' SAAC - 259
