THE SCARLET HAWKS- EQUITY IN ATHLETICS
MEN'S AND WOMEN'S INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS
AT ILLINOIS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
OCTOBER, 2009 |
|
| The Department of Athletics and Recreation at Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) offers a comprehensive program of varsity sports for both men and women. IIT strives to provide the resources necessary for its male and female athletes to compete successfully and personally benefit from the intercollegiate experience. This document describes IIT's varsity sports program and the resources IIT provides to its teams. The information below is for the year starting June 1, 2008, and ending May 31, 2009. |
| I. General Information on the Varsity Teams |
The Scarlet Hawks men's teams compete in baseball, basketball, soccer, cross-country and swimming/diving. The women's teams compete in soccer, cross-country, swimming/diving, basketball and volleyball. The university is an active member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), Division 1.
All athletes must be regularly enrolled, full-time undergraduates and must maintain academic eligibility. Graduates of accredited high schools or community colleges become eligible to compete in college athletics immediately upon matriculation. A student who transfers from a four-year college is ineligible to compete in a NAIA sport for one semester. A limited number of athletic scholarships are available to outstanding scholar-athletes. An athlete is permitted four full years of intercollegiate competition, which may accumulate at IIT or in a combined IIT and junior college career. Appropriate varsity awards are presented to letter winners in all sports. Seniors who have lettered for four consecutive years in a sport are given an IIT Letterman's watch.
IIT's Director of Athletics is Lee Hitchen. He can be contacted for information or for a paper copy of this document upon request. He can be contacted at the following: |
