President’s Athletics Advisory Council
The President’s Athletics Advisory Council (PAAC) is
responsible for advising the president and dean of students on
major decisions impacting Athletics. The PAAC advises the president
on all matters relating to intercollegiate athletics to strengthen
programs and insure the alignment of intercollegiate athletics with
the MCLA mission and goals.
The PAAC supports the development and maintenance of a competitive
intercollegiate athletic program which reflects favorably upon MCLA
and supports and advises on activities related to the welfare and
academic achievement of student athletes. The council does not set
or execute policy, but serves to provide counsel concerning
intercollegiate athletics to help foster and maintain program
strength, academic integrity of the College and the academic and
social development of student athletes with attention to equity,
student welfare, development and sportsmanship, facility planning,
academic standards and integrity, and, campus and community
relations. The PAAC meets regularly and reports annually to the
College President. The Council is led by co-chairpersons one of
whom is the Faculty Athletic Representative (FAR) and the other is
appointed by the College President.
