UT Dallas is committed to institutional control of the athletics program with regard to all rules and regulations established by the NCAA, by the conferences of which UT Dallas is a member, and by the University.

This responsibility is a collective endeavor that is shared by athletics department staff, student-athletes, University administration, individuals and groups representing the athletics interests of the institution.
