MISSION STATEMENT

Morehead State University believes that Intercollegiate Athletics is an integral part of the University and that a broad-based intercollegiate athletics program encourages student participation and involvement in the total life of the University. In addition, intercollegiate athletic programs play a positive role by supporting the academic and public service missions of the University.

The core values we maintain in our daily operations are demonstrated below.

Compliance: Each athletic program shall adhere to the principles of fair play and amateur competition as defined by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the Ohio Valley Conference, and the Pioneer Football League.

Quality: Each athletic program shall be administered at the highest level that the University's resources will allow so that each student-athlete will have the opportunity to compete to the fullest extent of his or her ability.

Equality: The athletic programs shall adhere to the University's Affirmative Action Plan promoting equal opportunity for all employees and students, as well as applicants for employment and student participation.

Graduation: Each student-athlete, through academic counseling and individual assistance, shall be encouraged toward completion of degree requirements and graduation.
