Barton County Community College Athletic Program Mission 

The athletic program is an integral part of the educational program of the College and improves the lives of students through their participation as athletes and as spectators. Athletics provides unique educational opportunities to develop student physical, social, and academic skills.  Students learn the values of teamwork, discipline, commitment, and sportsmanship.

In addition, athletics strengthens the campus community as well as the larger community served by the College by providing a positive, shared and unifying experience.

The primary goals of the
athletic program are to:

• Assist student athletes in securing a college education
• Build traditional age campus enrollment in a relatively cost effective manner
• Provide students to support core freshman and sophomore courses
• Provide students to support cost effective housing and foodservice
• Provide students to support a wide variety of student services
• Provide an opportunity for some Kansas students to continue their athletic interests
• Help develop a more diverse student body by attracting student athletes from out of state and foreign countries.
• Create a source of pride and unity for the campus and community
• Provide quality entertainment for the campus and community
• Be competitive within the Jayhawk Conference by winning more than losing

Measures

The athletic program, individual sports, and their leadership will be evaluated on how well they achieve the athletic mission and goals.
