STUDENT-ATHLETE SUCCESS PROGRAM The University of Connecticut is committed to each golfer, and all of its student-athletes, and their holistic development during their undergraduate career. Participation in athletics is important, but it represents only one aspect of the players’ college experience. At the Uni- versity of Connecticut, academic achievement is the primary concern. The University’s commitment to the student-athlete is a dual one. Participation in athletics is not viewed as an obstacle to the attain- ment of one’s educational goals, rather it is seen as a complementary activity. Each supports the other. Athletic excellence is stressed, but academic achievement is never compromised --- indeed, it is given the utmost priority. The University realizes that the golf team and all student-athletes, due to their athletic involvement, are required to commit a large percentage of their personal time to University-sponsored athletic activities. For this reason, the University recognizes the need for a support program for its intercollegiate athletes. The Student-Athlete Succes Program (SASP) constantly assists all student-athletes in achieving their academic goals. The SASP staff serves as a liaison between the academic faculty, the Division of Athletics, and the student-athlete. In serving as a liaison between the UConn student-athletes and University faculty and staff, the SASP counselors also provide assistance in securing appropriate support services available within the University. These include orientation for student-athletes, supervised study halls, individual tutors and tutorial centers (an English/Writing Center, Math Center and Reading Center), and learning skills seminars. With the advent of everchanging technology, all of the SASP computer labs have been updated with new equipment and allow students to access the world wide web as well as the Homer Babbidge Library database that connects them to literally millions of the most recent scholarly research journals available. Last season (2017-18), for the third time in four years, UConn was honored as a Golf Coaches Association of America All-Academic Team and for the 13th consecutive year, UConn received an Academic Public Recognition Award from the NCAA, signifying an Academic Progress Rate among the top 10 percent nationally in its sport. In addition, the Huskies had two student-athletes, Jimmy Hervol and Nick Harrington, named Srixon/Cleveland Golf All-American Scholars
