INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the Westminster University Compliance home page. The goal of this site is to provide our boosters, alumni, fans, coaches, prospects, and student-athletes with information regarding the rules and regulations of the NCAA. While not all-inclusive, it is meant to provide guidance in many of the situations you may encounter and should help you avoid inadvertently violating NCAA policies. Compliance with the rules and regulations is essential to creating a winning environment for all of Westminster's athletic teams.
ASK BEFORE YOU ACT
It is the responsibility of every individual associated with Westminster University Athletics to be educated. If questions arise, we ask that you contact our Director of Compliance, James Patten, at 801.832.2394 or by
email. Asking questions before acting ensures that the eligibility of our department and our student-athletes is not jeopardized.
ATHLETICS MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is to support the mission of Westminster University. The athletic programs offered at Westminster University are developed for the purpose of supporting the college’s commitment to student learning. Through athletics, Griffin student-athletes have the opportunity to learn lifelong skills such as leadership, self-discipline, healthy lifestyle, teamwork, and competitive experiences which provide all student-athletes an opportunity to achieve excellence in their academic, athletic, and personal pursuits. In this pursuit of excellence, the Department supports equitable opportunities for all student-athletes and staff and adheres to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics principles of amateurism, sportsmanship, fair play, ethical conduct, institutional control, and the health and welfare of our student-athletes.
