Dear Student Athlete: J welcome you to Morehead State University and take great pride in introducing our 2003-2004 Eagle Basketball team. I am excited about exposing you to our great facilities, beautifu.J campus, and tremendous people. My coaching staff and I wish you the very best for a great high school or junior college experience. Whether you a.re an underclassman who is just beginning to consider a college choice or a senior who is narrowing1your choice of schools, 1 encourage you to make the most of these yea.rs by giving a great effort in the classroom and on the court. One of the most important decisions you will ever make is "Where will I go to college?,, 1 genuinely hope that you'll i:onsider Morehead State University for the many benefits it offers to anyone who attends this fine insti tution. First, and most importantly, Morehead State University offers 76 undergraduate degree programs in four colleges of study and is highly respected as a quality institution. As an example, our pre-med students a.re accepted into medical school at a rate of 77 percent, nearly 40 percent above the national average. Also our expectional stu dent/teacher ratio of 17:l and 10:l computer/student ratio insures the availability of quality personal attention from professors and accessibility to computers. Our commitment to academics in athletics is obvious as we have been awarded the Ohio Valley Conference Academic Achievement Banner three times since 1993. Whatever your area of interest, Morehead State University can provide you with the necessary tools to reach your academic goals and jump start you towards the career of your choice. A second reason to come to MSU is ad1letics. As a member of the competitive Ohio Valley Conference, you will be challenged in conference play as well as by our tough non-conference schedules which have included the likes of Kentucky, Louisville, Cincinnati, Florida, Georgia Tech, Minnesota, North Carolina State, Arizona State, Alabama, Ohio State, and Vanderbilt. Our facilities are second to none in the OVC. We are especially proud of our state-of-the-art weight room furnished with the finest weight training equipment available. Thi.rd are the people. Our University and community a.re committed to your success as a student and an ath lete. The coaches, support staff, faculty, administration, and fans are what separate Morehead State from other schools. Their commitment to you will be for the total person, so that your four yea.rs at MSU will be an unfor- getable experience that equips you for the rest of your life. If you choose Morehead State University, you become a member of the basketball and extended University family, a relationship that will benefit you forever. Best wishes for success in every area of your life.
