An Open Letter to Boosters and Alumni
Dear Hawks Fans,
Monmouth University, as a member of the Northeast Conference and the National Collegiate Athletic Association, is responsible for ensuring that its student-athletes, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends abide with conference and NCAA regulations. Under these rules, alumni and friends can be categorized as "representatives of Monmouth University athletics interests," more commonly referred to as boosters.
The information on this Website is intended as a quick reference to the many NCAA rules which apply to our "athletics representatives." Not all applicable situations are included, so please call if you have questions. The department appreciates your interest and support, but reminds you that an inappropriate contact or an inadvertent action on your part can jeopardize the eligibility of our prospects and student-athletes. When in doubt, ask first, act second!
Monmouth is proud of the loyal, enduring support of our athletics programs by our alumni and friends. As we continuously strive to improve, we must always do so with the highest standard of ethical conduct. Your cooperation and assistance are vital to our meeting these goals.
Go Hawks!
Dr. Marilyn McNeil
Director of Athletics
