What is a FAR?
A NCAA Faculty Athletics Representative or FAR is a member of the faculty. He/she is a faculty voice ensuring balance between academics and athletics for the benefit of the student–athlete.
The Three Prongs of an effective FAR:
- Student-Athlete Well–Being
- Academic Integrity [within the athletics program]
- Institutional Control [of the athletics program]
FAR have a professional organization called the Faculty Athletics Representatives Association (FARA). The FARA has a website you are welcome to view. That site’s address is http://www.farawebsite.org/
