  • Florida College System Activities Association Report to the Council of Presidents February 8, 2019
    Florida College System Activities Association Report to the Council of Presidents February 8, 2019 FCSAA Retention Project As part of our strategic plan, the FCSAA is working on a retention project looking at the effect involvement in co- curricular and extra-curricular activities has on student retention and graduation. Anecdotally, those of us who work in Student Life and Athletics have seen the positive effect this involvement has, so this project is designed to get quantifiable data behind it. We are starting with the Athletics division because their data is the easiest to capture due to NJCAA requirements. Currently we are working with five colleges and their athletic directors and registrars as a sample. Once we determine the best method to gather the data from the sample colleges, we’ll move forward with the full Athletics division. We do not plan to separate out colleges or sports, but rather simply report data on student athletes as a whole across the state. Once we fully develop the plan and implement it in the Athletics division, we'll then move on to the academic divisions in 2019-2020. We believe this will ultimately show some very positive data regarding student involvement in activities and athletics. Academic Divisions Brain Bowl: FCSAA Regional Tournaments are scheduled for February 8-9, 2019 at: East Central: Seminole State College West Central: South Florida State College Panhandle: Florida Gateway College South: Indian River State College FCSAA State Tournament is March 28-30, 2019, at State College of Florida.
