Mission Statement - Varsity Athletics at Indiana University South Bend

Athletics

The mission is to create an environment of excellence where scholar-athletes will develop as a total person in academic skills, life skills and athletic skills.
 

As educators within the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management, we strive to foster academic and intellectual development, and create a climate that supports learning in all aspects of student life. Through collaboration, we cultivate and promote responsibility, accountability and excellence in our students. We mentor and empower students to develop to their highest potential and to become leaders in their communities. 
 

It is the mission of Indiana University South Bend's athletic training service to provide quality medical coverage and care for the student athletes competing in intercollegiate sports. There will be an emphasis on the prevention of injuries through education and preventative techniques, as well as providing a safe competitive environment. The injuries incurred while participating will be managed, treated, and rehabilitated to ensure a safe return back to sports and to daily life. When necessary, appropriate referral of student athletes to medical and/or other health personnel will be done.
