Department of Athletics Mission Statement

Recognizing that competitive athletics provide enriching and rewarding experiences for students, the Metropolitan Campus of Fairleigh Dickinson University is dedicated to maintaining Division I intercollegiate athletics as an integral part of the University’s educational experience. Achieving academic excellence, however, is the central mission of the University and accordingly, Fairleigh Dickinson University encourages and emphasizes the importance of its student-athletes fulfilling their degree requirements. Participation in Division I athletics provides equal opportunity for all students, men and women, to enhance and refine their physical skills at the high- est competitive level and to improve personal attributes such as discipline, leadership, teamwork and sportsmanship. Additionally the athletics program serves as an important building block for the development of institutional loyalty and school spirit among students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of the University. A successful athletics program is dependent upon the cooperation and support of the Board of Trustees, the administration, faculty, staff, students, alumni and the public. Knowledgeable coaches and dedicated student-athletes who are committed to fostering integrity and excellence in a competi- tive atmosphere and devoted to implementing the philosophical stance of the governing bodies of intercollegiate athletics ensure the fulfillment of the University’s mission on athletics.
