2013-2014 Annual Report
The Intramural Recreational-Sports Services experienced another outstanding
year in 2013-14, with over 2,200 unique participants. Over the past few
years we have offered over 30 activities per year. Our participation is good,
but we must not be complacent. We must continue to be innovative and
creative in satisfying the recreational needs of our student body. The
students who participate in Intramurals are very well-rounded. They deserve
a first-class program that provides fun, fitness, and friendship.
On April 22, 2014, we had our 22nd Intramural Sports Banquet. The banquet
has become an Intramural Sports tradition at Michigan Tech. The main
emphasis of the banquet is to say “thank you” to our employees. Our
intramural endowment account funds this annual banquet. Eighteen major
awards were handed out to our student personnel. This past school year we
employed approximately 125 students. These students do an outstanding job
in their work responsibilities, and they learn leadership skills that they will
utilize throughout their life. Our student workers are truly the “backbone” of
our Intramural-Recreational Sports Services Department.
The Experience Tech fee has benefited our program. We plan to continue to
meet the demands of the participants and to improve the recreational
opportunities for the student body.
The information in this annual report is a snap shot of the many programs and
services offered. It contains participation charts, Michigan Tech Fund
endowments/accounts, and goals for 2014-15.
If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide a wide variety of recreational activities that will appeal to the leisure-time pursuits
of the students, faculty, and staff. We encourage that participation be for fun, fitness, and friendship. We
promote and honor individual and team sportsmanship. We provide the opportunity for students to
compete against and interact with other students, thus promoting good citizenship and socialization.
Student employees develop social and leadership skills that are essential for lifelong learning. The
Intramural-Recreational Sports Services program is designed to be consistent with the educational
objectives of Michigan Technological University.
VISION STATEMENT
We will be a vital component of the total development and well-being of the Michigan Tech community.
INTRAMURAL-RECREATIONAL SPORTS PROGRAM
Michigan Technological University's Intramural-Recreational Sports Program is designed to provide all of
its participants with the opportunity to participate in organized sports and recreational activities.
It is the purpose of the Intramural (IM) program to provide a sound, attractive schedule of activities that will
appeal to the leisure-time pursuits of Michigan Tech students, faculty, staff and administration.
Intramural competition operates on a voluntary basis, and is both a supplement to and a continuation of
various physical education classes. Intramurals are for those students who, because of skill level or
inclination, do not compete on a varsity level (check the eligibility rules and regulations for status on varsity
athletes).
Further objectives of the Intramural Sports Program include:
1.
Encourage participation for fun and pleasure.
2.
Provide a program which will be structured to meet the interests, characteristics and needs of the participants.
3.
Provide a program which will include competitive activities ranging from vigorous to moderate in nature.
4.
Motivate students so as to achieve maximum participation.
5.
Give each student the opportunity to work with others, thus promoting good citizenship and sportsmanship.
6.
Provide an opportunity to develop physically, mentally and socially.
7.
Develop interest and skill in recreational activities and provide activities with carry-over (lifelong) value to the
participants.
8.
Establish a rapport between Michigan Tech students, organizations, faculty, staff and university
administrators.
The Intramural Program is designed to be consistent with the educational objectives of the university. It is
the hope of the Intramural Department that the students, faculty, staff and administration of Michigan
Technological University will find time to participate in some phase of the Intramural-Recreational Sports
Program. We hope that you will receive personal satisfaction and enjoyment from the program.
