Athletics Mission Statement
The mission of Rogers State University Athletics is to provide student-athletes with quality athletics, academic and personal achievement opportunities through competition, service and positive representation.
Athletics Vision Statement
We will be regarded as a progressive and innovative NCAA athletics program recognized for our championship-caliber teams, for leading the region in academic success and community involvement, and for our holistic approach to preparing students for success in life
The enduring goals of the RSU athletics program are:
• To ensure student-athletes have a positive academic and athletic experience that provides further development of athletic skills, personal mental and social growth, and in some instances, possible career preparation. The Athletics Department shall be constantly aware of the primacy of the academic over the athletic and shall do all it can to urge student-athletes to attain a meaningful education culminating in the attainment of their degree
• To be guided by the United States federal government’s Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and the principles of gender equity that insure equal opportunity for all students and to provide equal opportunities in employment within the athletics staff.
• To continue to strengthen the fund raising capabilities to improve the overall operation and insure the overall growth of the program.
• To be cognizant that the intercollegiate athletics program endeavors are not ends in themselves, but are directed to the benefit of each student-athlete as a total person in particular, and to the good of the University as a whole.
• To project a positive image of the University within the Claremore community and the surrounding region, and for each program to actively participate in community engagement activities.
