Abstract: Abstract This article explores the longstanding and often underrecognized influence of the Southern Association for College Student Affairs (SACSA) on the development and evolution of the Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education (CAS). Tracing shared origins, early advocacy for professional standards, and sustained leadership from SACSA members, the paper illustrates how regional collaboration has shaped national practices in student affairs. Highlighting historical milestones, leadership contributions, and a call for future research, this analysis positions SACSA as a critical partner in CAS’s legacy and continued relevance in the field.
