Mission Statement

The NDNU Athletics Department provides students with a competitive sports program and athletic activity classes consistent with the University’s mission of educating the whole person. It is recognized that participation in intercollegiate athletics contributes a great deal to the student-athlete’s overall collegiate educational experience by teaching leadership, teamwork, and the ethical behavior necessary to succeed in the world in which we live. Success is measured not only by wins, but also by the development of skill, the cultivation of team and community spirit, and the ability to develop a productive academic, social, spiritual, and personal life.
