UAF OFFICE OF COMPLIANCE
STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
The University of Alaska Fairbanks has the challenge of balancing the benefits derived from competing at both the Division I and II levels and maintaining the integrity of the student-athlete. The primary function of our sports program is to provide the student-athlete with an educational, social, and physical experience that closely emulates the mission of the University. The essence of the student-athletes' experience must adhere to the principles of fair play and amateur competition as defined by the NCAA and conference rules. The welfare of the student-athlete is an essential aspect of the process.
Academic pursuit is the primary purpose of the University. The priorities when coaches recruit students are academic ability, citizenship and athletic talent. The University has chosen to compete at the Division I and II levels to maximize benefits that can be obtained with a successful athletics program. The pressure of having winning teams, producing revenue and receiving wide media exposure are intense, but they are part of the Division I and II commitment. Successful athletic teams provide local, regional and national publicity that benefit student recruitment, stimulate alumni pride and enhance development.
The UAF Office of Compliance is committed to ensuring that the department as a whole follows the rules set forth by the NCAA, Conference and institution. The information contained on these pages is provided in an effort to educate staff, community members, current student-athletes and potential student-athletes to this end. The compliance section of this website is divided into four specific areas: boosters, prospective student-athletes, current student-athletes and Nanook coaches and staff.
