Upper Midwest Athletic Conference Philosophy Statement
The Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) is a group of strong yet diverse colleges and universities. We will strive to enrich the college careers of student athletes by offering a range of highly competitive amateur athletic opportunities. Our primary focus is on student athletes and their collegiate experience, with an uncompromising commitment to athletic equity and to the primacy of student academic progress. As an association of institutions dedicated to the conference, we will seek to enhance the overall richness of our collegiate programs. This will be done for all students, faculty, staff, and alumni by supporting teams who will consistently demonstrate the values of hard work, integrity and good sportsmanship. We believe a strong intercollegiate athletics conference can also serve the economic and entertainment needs of our communities by providing consistently high quality, exciting sports options. The UMAC endorses the NCAA Division III philosophy, including the central policy-making role of fully engaged college presidents and chancellors.
