Mission Statement
The
intercollegiate athletic program will:
Graduate
student-athletes at a higher rate than the general student body.
This is the
ultimate goal of the athletic department.
Be as
successful as resources allow.
Based on
personnel and resources, the intercollegiate athletic teams will
pursue the highest level of success possible. Personnel, operating
budgets, scholarship budgets and physical resources play a large
role in determining the success of the athletic programs.
Operate
with integrity.
There is no
athletic outcome that justifies the violation of any institutional,
conference, or NCAA rule or regulation. The NCAA principles of
sportsmanship, ethical conduct, amateurism and rules compliance are
paramount.
Enhance the
educational experience of the student-athlete.
A
student-athlete’s value system is enhanced through their experience
as a collegiate student-athlete. Values such as teamwork,
leadership, commitment, sacrifice and perseverance can be developed
and enhanced as the result of a student-athletes experience.
Represent
the institution in a positive manner.
The Department
of Athletics is the ‘Front Porch’ of the university. The first
reflection of the reputation of the university is largely portrayed
by the actions of the Department of Athletics. It is vital that the
programs represent the institution in a positive manner on and off
the playing field.
Produce
contributors to society
The true
measure of success of an athletic department is how productive the
student-athletes during and after their collegiate experience.
