What is the UNC Blue and Gold Club?
Created in 1982, the UNC Blue and Gold is made up of alumni and friends
of the University of Northern Colorado united in an organized effort to
serve the University through their particular interest in
Intercollegiate Athletics. Dedicated to providing scholarship
assistance to qualified student-athletes, the Club has provided a
much-needed extra measure of support, since revenue from gate receipts
and appropriations from the University are insufficient to meet growing
athletic scholarship demands. The Club annually awards over $700,000
in athletic grant-in-aid. Other important purposes of the Club include
contributing funds for capital improvements to UNC athletic facilities
and for other athletic activities that are not normally funded through
institutional and/or student fee allocation sources.

What do Athletic Scholarships Mean To a Top Athletic Program?
UNC's move to the NCAA Division I level and its success on the playing field rests upon its ability to
attract the best and brightest student-athletes.
Blue and Gold scholarships enable UNC male and female student- athletes
to pursue a quality education at one of the region's top universities
and participate in an intercollegiate athletic program that competes on
a national level.
Because of the support provided by the UNC Blue and Gold Club, UNC
student-athletes have maintained a level of athletic and academic
excellence of which the University, our alumni and fans may be proud.
Recent achievements by UNC student-athletes include:
29 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans since 1989
26 All-America Performers in 2002-03
53 North Central Conference team championships from 1980 through the 2002-03 year
Two National Football Championships
Numerous Academic All-Conference selections
Champions ... In the Classroom
Not only has the UNC Blue and Gold Club produced champions on the
field, but, more importantly, it helps produce champions in the
classroom. Nearly 20 percent of UNC student-athletes were recognized
for having cumulative grade-point averages of 3.25 or above last year,
and since the inception of the NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships, the Bears have had 14 student-athletes earn the prestigious
award.
