Sportsmanship Committee
The Committee has been charged with conducting a study of fan behavior before, after, and during University athletic events; reviewing current University policies to encourage sportsmanship; and recommending improvements in University policies and practices that promote sportsmanship and appropriate fan behavior. The Committee has been asked to develop a vision statement that sets forth our goals for sportsmanship and civility surrounding athletic events.
The scope of the Committee's review includes: 1) fan behavior at campus athletic events; 2) actions taken by the Athletic Department and the campus to encourage sportsmanship at events and their effectiveness; 3) fan behavior before and after athletic events and the effectiveness of campus planning for, and reaction to, such events. The Committee should also consider practices and policies at other universities. Finally, the Committee has been asked to recommend changes in campus policy and practices that will encourage fan behavior that is consistent with the principles set forth in our statement.
