Sports and recreational activities have long been an integral part of the American culture. Likewise, both competitive and leisure sport activities have long played an important role in the life of institutions of higher education in the United States. The benefits derived from participation in such activities are well-recognized and scientifically documented. They range from simple enjoyment and wellness to a heightened sense of satisfaction gained from testing one鈥檚 mettle, skill and ability in a highly competitive arena. Intramural and extramural sports also provide opportunities to enhance and support a larger sense of community within the institution.
It is important to recognize that sports programming needs to be as diverse as the people it is designed to serve; consequently, the overall Athletics and Campus Recreation program is designed across a broad continuum, beginning with basic instructional programs and incorporating recreational activities, intramural sports programs, club sports programs and, finally, intercollegiate athletic programs for the highly-skilled student athlete.
The underlying philosophy of each program along the continuum is essentially the same: to fully and effectively accommodate the needs and interests of the student body, the University and the larger community in which it resides. Consistent with the University鈥檚 mission, campus recreation and athletic programs will be educationally based, focused primarily on the needs and interests of the participants, and shall be fiscally responsible.
Athletics
Intercollegiate athletics at 海角社区CI supports the University mission by providing comprehensive co-curricular programming through competitive sports. Furthermore, athletics at 海角社区CI will be designed and maintained to be:
- Educationally based
- Ethically sound
- Fiscally responsible
- Gender equitable
- Imbued with the values of sportsmanship and fair play
Recognizing that competitive sports play a valuable role in the life of an educational institution, as well as in the life of the community at large, athletics at 海角社区CI will be designed and maintained to reflect its role as a campus and community service. However, it should be noted that the primary focus of athletics will always be student-athlete based.
Campus Recreation
Through its programs and services, Campus Recreation assists students in creating and maintaining healthy lifestyles by balancing the demands of academic pursuits with the benefits of 鈥渨ellness鈥� through physical fitness, competition and recreation. Campus Recreation provides programming and activities in the following eight categories: Intramural Sports, Informal Recreation, Sports Clubs, Instructional Programs, Health and Fitness, Waterfront, Outdoor Adventures and Special Events.
