  • 2017-18 Annual Report Atlantic Coast Conference Mission Statement
    2017-18 ANNUAL REPORT ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE MISSION STATEMENT ACC MISSION STATEMENT To maximize the educational and athletic opportunities that shape our leaders of tomorrow — in the classroom, in competition, and in life. ACC VISION STATEMENT To be at the forefront in educational excellence, athletic achievement, and innovation while inspiring the development of leaders in the ACC. ACC CORE VALUES ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE ATHLETICS EXCELLENCE COMPETITIVE FAIRNESS INTEGRITY CAMARADERIE INCLUSION DEVELOPMENT OF LEADERSHIP SPORTSMANSHIP TOTAL PERSON COMMISSIONER’S WELCOME he academic and athletic standards the Atlantic Coast Conference was founded upon in T 1953 continue to be a priority more than 60 years later, and the 2017-18 academic year was no exception. Academically, the ACC’s unique blend of public and private institutions continue to lead the way among Autonomy 5 conferences. This was once again demonstrated in the annual “Best Colleges” rankings released by US News & World Report, as the ACC was the only Autonomy 5 conference to place seven of its member institutions among the top 35 and eight member schools among the top 50. With an average rank of 54.2, the ACC led all FBS conferences for the 11th consecutive year. ACC institutions saw 96 combined teams receive Academic Progress Rate recognition awards from the NCAA in May, once again the most of any peer conference. In the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate report released last November, the ACC’s graduation rate of 91 percent was four points above the national average. Additionally, the league tied for the highest GSR among peer conferences in the sport of football, and a combined six ACC men’s and women’s basketball teams achieved perfect scores.

Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/lawreview Part of the Law Commons Recommended Citation John P.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Santa Clara Law Review by an authorized editor of Santa Clara Law Digital Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS—THE NEED TO REVISIT THE NCAA’S “NO AGENT RULE” John P. Sahl* The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the primary governing body for intercollegiate athletics, promulgated its “No Agent Rule” in 1974 prohibiting advisors of student-athletes from communi- cating and negotiating with professional sports teams. As part of a core principle of amateurism, the NCAA adopted this rule, in part, to deline- ate between professional athletes and student athletes. However, through economic and societal evolution, this policy is antiquated and detrimental to the personal and professional development of college ath- letes. This Article argues in favor of expanding the recent Rice Commis- sion’s recommendation, adopted by the NCAA, to grant an exception from the No Agent Rule for Men’s Division I elite basketball players to all college sports and levels of competition.

  • Final Internal Message at ESPN We Take Great Pride in the Development Of
    Final internal message At ESPN we take great pride in the development of future leaders of the company, people who understand our Mission and Values and who make other people better. We have many such individuals at ESPN and I am confident that the list grows longer every day. Secure in that belief and with the support of Bob Iger, today I am announcing that as of January 1, 2012, I will take on the new position of Executive Chairman of ESPN, a position I will hold for at least the next 12 months. In that capacity I will remain Chairman of the ESPN Board but will hand off responsibility for the day-to-day duties as President of ESPN and co-chair of Disney Media Networks. Succession planning has been a focus of Disney's for some time, and consistent with that approach, this is a process that I began last spring. We are in very good shape both domestically and internationally on many fronts, including rights, distribution, ad sales, ratings and digital distribution and I simply decided that after 13 years as president and nearly 31 years at the company, it was a good time for me to step aside and allow others to lead our continuing efforts. Bob and I are extremely excited to share as well that on January 1, John Skipper will assume the duties of President of ESPN and Co-Chair (along with Anne Sweeney) of Disney Media Networks. John's record of achievement as head of our Content Division and his prior experience in Ad Sales and launching ESPN The Magazine have prepared him well to take on these roles.
