SAC Initiatives
Shareholder Resolutions and Corporate Dialogues
The Shareholder Advocacy Committe (SAC) shall engage with companies - through an approach centered on advocacy - in discussion concerning their practices and policies (i.e., letters of concern, inquiries); to join forces with other like-minded advocacy groups in initiatives, such as filing shareholder resolutions, to effect positive change; to vote the University’s shares; to and to serve the University as a resource for information on advocacy issues, social responsibility, and corporate governance.
The Shareholder Advocacy Committee at Loyola University Chicago has engaged companies through meetings/conference calls, correspondence, and through filing of shareholder resolutions.
