TO: The University Senate
FROM: Athletic Affairs Committee
SUBJECT: Athletic Affairs Committee Report to the University Senate, 2019-20 AY
REFERENCES: University Senate Document 90-31, 22 April 1991
DISPOSITION: University Senate for Information
Purdue University’s commitment to the academic and social well-being of its student-athletes is
focused through the activities of the Athletic Affairs Committee (AAC) and Intercollegiate
Athletics (ICA). This report covers the two regular semesters in the year that has passed since
the last report from the AAC: the Fall 2019 Semester and the Spring 2020 Semester.
FACULTY OVERSIGHT OF ATHLETICS
Faculty oversight of ICA continues to be exercised through the AAC. The 2019-20 and 2020-21
membership of the AAC, listed in Appendix 1 of this report, includes representation from faculty,
an appointed liaison from the Student Affairs Committee of the University Senate, a liaison to
the President, alumni, citizens from the local community, Purdue University students, and ICA
senior staff. The AAC monitors the academic progress of the student-athletes and the efforts of
ICA to provide outstanding opportunities to learn, compete, and develop personally. The AAC
was briefed on the academic status of each sport program and received updates on the primary
NCAA academic metrics, the Graduation Success Rate and the Academic Progress Rate.
At monthly meetings of the AAC, the members hear reports and participate in discussions
pertinent to their mandate. All minutes and supporting documents are filed with the University
Senate, and thus are readily available for review. The AAC may be asked to study, review and
approve changes in Purdue rules and regulations affecting intercollegiate athletics programs, and
to formulate positions with regard to legislation pending before the NCAA. The AAC also
discusses diverse topics related to Big Ten or NCAA matters, or national news/trends that may
affect the status of both university sports programs and the eligibility of student-athletes. A
characteristic agenda and a partial list of topics discussed during the current academic year are
provided in Appendix 2.
The Vice President and Director of Athletics provides additional information related to the
strategic plans of the department, including current goals, key progress measures, facilities
projects, etc. Elements of the current plan, especially those that pertain to the development and
welfare of the students are presented in brief below.
In addition to the AAC meetings, the senior associate athletics director for student services
conducts two academic planning meetings each year at which plans and outcomes over a three-
year period are discussed. The two faculty athletic representatives (FAR) participate in each
meeting, along with members of the senior athletics administrative staff and the athletics student
services staff. The purpose of the meetings is to update the FARs on the plans for the academic
areas for the next three years. Academic information for the athletics department and for each
sports program is reviewed during each meeting. Information from these meetings is conveyed
to the AAC as appropriate.

The 2019-20 and 2020- membership of the AAC, listed in Appendix 1 of this report, includes representation from faculty, an appointed liaison from the Student Affairs Committee of the University Senate, a liaison to the President, alumni, citizens from the local community, Purdue University students, and ICA senior staff.

OVERVIEW OF STUDENT-ATHLETE ACADEMIC DATA

Each semester the pattern of student-athlete choice of major, course selection and academic performance is assessed through data reported by the Office of Institutional Effectiveness and compared to comparable data for the remainder of the student body. This report is/will be sent to the President, Provost, Vice-Provost for Learning and Teaching, the Athletic Affairs Committee, FARs and Athletics Director for review. Data for the fall 2019 and spring 2020 is included in Appendix 3.

OVERVIEW OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS

The Director of Athletics and others from the department often share goals and metrics from the department's strategic plan with the AAC. Some elements of the plan, especially those related to the academic success of the students are reported for the Senate's review. Words in brackets replace personal pronouns that might be misunderstood in the context of this report.

The foundation of the plan lies in the Vision, Mission and Goals of the department.

Vision: A championship-caliber athletics organization that is excellent in all respects and is a consistent member of the “25/85 Club.”

The "25/85 Club" refers to a very small number of elite NCAA Division I institutions that consistently have their teams ranked in the top 25 while graduating their student-athletes at an 85 percent rate as measured by the NCAA Graduation Success Rate (GSR). The GSR is similar to the Federal Graduation Rate, but the yearly cohorts are adjusted as students transfer in or out of the university.

Mission: Developing Champions / Scholars / Citizens

[The department] will engage and inspire all constituencies to support the broader university pursuit of preeminence by attracting and retaining the very best student-athletes, coaches and staff while engaging former student-athletes in an effort to maintain their identity as part of the Purdue athletics family.

The very best [student-athletes] will execute this mission sharing a common set of values – integrity, mutual respect, a belief in hard work and team work, a commitment to inclusiveness – and the courage to lead. They will be the Purdue Athletics’ brand and continue to enhance our reputation while being pleased with every aspect of their experience at the university.

It is expected that [the department] will be a financially self-supporting enterprise that provides the resources for coaches and staff to develop championship programs.

Cumulative Grade Point Average by Team

The Academic Progress Rate (APR)

The APR is an NCAA semester-by-semester assessment of academic progress. It is calculated by allocating one point per student for eligibility and one for retention—the two factors that research identifies as the best predictors of graduation. The data are presented on the basis of four-year rolling averages for each team. Teams must achieve an APR score of 930 to avoid NCAA penalties. Teams below 930 are ineligible for NCAA post-season competition and are required to develop and execute an academic improvement plan.

Each student on a roster who is receiving an athletics scholarship earns a maximum of two points per term, one for being academically eligible and one returning to the institution. A team’s APR is the total points of a team’s roster at a given time divided by the total points possible. The number is then multiplied by 1,000. Thus, a raw APR score of 0.930 is reported as 930 and reflects an approximate 50 percent Graduation Success Rate (NCAA website).
