Mission Statement
The Intercollegiate Athletic Committee (IAC) is a faculty committee appointed by the President to provide oversight and recommend policies related to academic issues affecting or affected by intercollegiate athletics. The IAC Mission Statement is to:
- Recommend policy changes related to academic issues affecting or affected by intercollegiate athletics
- Monitor admissions and academic progress of all student athletes
- Monitor changes in NCAA and SEC rules and procedures relative to academic programs and progress
- Review with the UAA compliance officer the institution's compliance program
- Receive, review, and advise on various reports related to student athlete academic well-being (such as admissions, academic progress, or others as identified by the committee or UAA)
- Report to the faculty on issues related to intercollegiate athletics via the University Senate at least once per year
- Make additional recommendations to the President on any other matters related to academic issues affecting or affected by intercollegiate athletics
The success of this mission is highly dependent on information sharing among faculty, student athletes, and the Athletic Association. We encourage all interested parties to use this website and the related email address, IAC@aa.ufl.edu as a conduit for information, suggestions, questions and answers about the critical academic/athletic nexus.
