Clark Atlanta University Athletics

ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY

Athletics exists to complement the University's mission "to provide opportunities for a diverse student population to achieve a high-quality, global educational experience.... Graduates are competent, informed, and productive citizens."  For many students, athletics serves as a gateway of introduction and confirmation as the institution of choice. 

Athletics' primary duties are to recruit, develop, and prepare student-athletes to compete on the field of play, in the classroom, in business and social settings, and to better the community in which she or he lives.  Additionally, athletics inspires the campus community, as well as pride among alumni and supporters.
