Department of Athletics Vision Statement

Concordia University intercollegiate athletic program is centered around the total development of the student-athlete. This is evident through a fierce commitment to providing high-quality coaching, and academic support services; the highest level of competitive opportunities; and outstanding facilities to enable each student-athlete to fulfill his/her full personal, academic, and athletic potential. Realizing this vision requires effective and timely decision-making, fiscal vigilance and responsibility, and innovative approaches to securing required resources.
 
In support of this vision, staff members are fully cognizant of and sensitive to their duty of care for all student-athletes. An environment in which a strong work ethic, loyalty, mutual respect, trust, and teamwork are highly valued and cultivated enables all staff to realize departmental and personal objectives.
 
While student-athlete centered, the intercollegiate athletic program recognizes and embraces its role in building a sense of community and pride on campus and as a bridge with alumni, friends, and the community at-large. In all its activities, the athletic program will steadfastly support and honor the traditions, values, and mission of Concordia University.
