SPONSORSHIP & PROMOTION
The American Athletic Conference unveiled a conference strategy plan designed to offer students at member institutions “with the highest quality academic, athletic and personal experience competing in a Power 6 conference.” The plan highlights five pillars to boost its role as a national leader in intercollegiate athletics including: Student Health, Safety and Well-Being; Academic Excellence; Athletic Excellence; Branding, Marketing, Communications and Public Relations; and Revenue Generation. “Our aim as a Power 6 conference is to pursue academic and athletic excellence at every level and within the context of our core values,” said Commissioner Mike Aresco said. “Our mission statement and series of goals and strategies reflect the collective spirit of our schools as our student-athletes seek to distinguish themselves in their academic, athletic and personal pursuits. Our schools also seek to engage effectively with their communities and with their peers in the intercollegiate community. This document provides a blueprint for our Conference’s continued growth and success, and serves to enhance our cohesion and camaraderie in pursuit of our shared objectives.”
