CAMPUS NOTICE

 

OFFICE OF THE VICE CHANCELLOR –
STUDENT AFFAIRS

April 6, 2017


ALL ACADEMICS, STAFF AND STUDENTS AT UC SAN DIEGO

SUBJECT:    Division I Athletics

The Big West athletics conference has announced its decision not to expand its membership to include UC San Diego at this time.

Moving forward, UC San Diego is committed to supporting its students, who voted overwhelmingly in support of reclassifying to Division I and aligning with peer institutions, a decision endorsed by faculty and alumni. As a University, we will continue dialogue to better understand and address the current issues surrounding UC San Diego’s potential membership in the Big West Conference. We will keep the campus informed as the issue of membership progresses.
