Athletic Department Handbook (PDF)
The Athletics Program at WNMU provides
activities, which are physically wholesome, mentally stimulating
and socially satisfying, thereby integrating athletics with the
total educational program. All students are encouraged to
participate in sports instruction, activities and competitions.
As a member of the National Collegiate Athletic
Association, (NCAA), our intercollegiate athletics program is an
integral part of the institution's total educational thrust,
subject to the same aims, policies, and objectives of other
institutional programs. It adheres to the principles of
sportsmanship and ethical conduct, rules compliance and
amateurism, as defined by NCAA rules for staff, student-athletes
and institutional personnel.
A sound athletics program should be sponsored
with the basic purpose of providing the benefits of participation
in athletics to as many students as possible. We support and
adhere to equitable opportunities for all staff and
student-athletes, including women and minorities. Intercollegiate
athletics must be an integral part of the academic life of the
institution. Academic policies have been adopted which assure that
athletes fulfill their responsibilities as students. Students are
expected to receive academic degrees within a maximum of 10
semesters of attendance. We are also committed to administer these
programs on a sound educational and financial basis.
