Muhlenberg College Athletics

VISION STATEMENT
The Department of Athletics and Recreation will foster a high impact, positive student experience. Our programs will motivate and empower students to develop leadership, well-being, sportsmanship and interpersonal skills while nurturing a sense of civic responsibility. We will recognize and embrace our role in the student learning process and share responsibilities for institutional outcomes, supporting a co-curricular experience and post-grad outcomes. Our coaches will be passionate about teaching and value meaningful relationships with students. We will be devoted to educating the whole person through experiences within and beyond athletic endeavors. 
 
Muhlenberg’s coaches will support the institutions's enrollment goals and recruit to attract and retain an increasingly diverse group of qualified prospective student athletes. We will focus on recruiting individuals equipped with ethical and civic values who will strive for academic and athletic excellence. Members of the Athletic Department staff will serve as role models by demonstrating a commitment to life-long learning, character development and dedication to leadership and service. We will demonstrate fiscal responsibility that support the institution's financial health while providing the resources necessary to support a positive and progressive experience for our students.
 
MISSION STATEMENT
The primary mission of the Department of Athletics is to serve as a full partner in the educational mission of the institution by attempting to meet the needs and reasonable expectations of students through a coordinated program of intercollegiate, recreational and wellness activities that inspire the values that serve as the foundation for a productive and successful life.
 
The College’s commitment to athletics as an integral part of its larger mission is affirmed in the institutional mission statement, as well as its Strategic Goals and Initiatives. As we strive for excellence to fulfill that mission, the NCAA Division III philosophy and the mission statement of the Centennial Conference serve as guides in the development of athletic policies and procedures.
