NCAA Division I Athletics Self-study Begins

As part of the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) Division I athletics certification program, which includes academic integrity, fiscal integrity, governance and rules compliance and student-athlete equity, welfare and sportsmanship, Fairleigh Dickinson is beginning a yearlong, campuswide, self-study effort. The process got underway officially on March 10, when NCAA representatives came to the campus to speak with all four subcommittees (in the areas listed above).

The Division I athletics program received its last accreditation in 1997, when it obtained the highest possible level of certification. The self-study effort, a comprehensive review of athletics, is to increase awareness and knowledge of the Division I program, identify its many strengths and develop a strategic plan to improve and grow.

Joining President J. Michael Adams on the self-study team will be the Provost (now interim provost) of the Metropolitan Campus Richard Bronson; Faculty Athletics Representative Richard Panicucci, quantitative analysis and assistant provost for campus life (Metro); Director of Athletics David Langford (Metro); and Associate Director of Athletics Ann Gulino (Metro). Kenneth Vehrkens, dean, New College (Metro/Flor), will serve as the Steering Committee chair, as he did in 1997.

In addition to Adams, Bronson, Gulino, Langford, Panicucci and Vehrkens, members of the Steering Committee are Hania Ferrara, associate vice president for finance (Metro/Flor); Gary Hamme, vice president for enrollment management (Metro/Flor); Sally Hashem, vice president for human resources and career management (Metro/Flor); Joseph Kiernan, economics and finance and assistant provost (Metro); Jennifer Lehr, English/communications (Flor); William O’Neill, BS’67, DDS’70 (Metro), trustee; Mensah Peterson, student (Metro); Wayne Richardson, general counsel; and Mary Kay Mastronardy Stratis, BA’69 (R), MAT’71 (Metro), trustee.
