William Paterson University 2002 Football Guide CONTENTS
2002 FOOTBALL GUIDE Since its founding in 1855, William Paterson University has grown to become a comprehensive, public, liberal arts institution committed to academic excellence and student success. Accredited by the Middle States Association of Schools and Colleges, it offers 30 undergraduate and 19 graduate degree programs as well as professional develop- ment programs through its five colleges: Arts and Communi- cation, the Christos M. Cotsakos College of Business, Educa- tion, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Science and Health. More than ten thousand full- and part-time students from a diversity of backgrounds are enrolled at the University. Occupying a 370-acre, wooded hillside campus, the Univer- sity is located in the hills of suburban Wayne, New Jersey, within an hour of the ocean, the mountains, the Meadow- lands, and New York City. As a state-supported institution, the University offers students the value of a first-rate education at a fraction of the cost experienced by those at private colleges and universities. It also offers a wide variety of student activities, modern on- campus housing, and the most up-to-date educational facilities. In addition, the Pioneer athletic programs have produced a rich tradition. William Paterson has 17 athletic teams which compete in NCAA Division III and the New Jersey Athletic Conference intercollegiate sports: Baseball, Men’s and Women’s Basketball, Men’s and Women’s Cross Country, Field Hockey, Football, Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Softball, Men’s and Women’s Swimming, Men’s and Women’s Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field, and Women’s Volleyball.
