JOHNSON, Vt.-The Northern Vermont University-Johnson Student Athlete Advisory Committee is proud to announce the upcoming Division III Week being held at NVU-Johnson. Division III Week will be held from April 15th-April 20th.
Division III Week is a positive opportunity for all individuals associated with Division III to observe and celebrate the impact of athletics and of student-athletes on the campus and surrounding community. During the week, every Division III school and conference office is encouraged to conduct a type of outreach activity that falls into one of three categories: academic accomplishment; athletic experience; or leadership/community service/campus involvement. Typically, Division III Week is run on April 1st through April 7th but with the scheduled Northern Vermont University-Johnson spring break the decision was to hold the events the week of April 15th- April 20th.
The following events were sponsored by the NVU-Johnson Student Athlete Advisory Commitee:
i. Monday: DIII info day tabling during lunch
ii. Tuesday: Badger Gear Day and student-athlete photoshoot
1. National Student-Athlete Day on the steps of SHAPE 12:30pm
2. Kahoot trivia event at Late Night in Stearns.
iii. Wednesday: Why DIIIphoto op.
iv. Thursday: Moonlit volleyball 9-10:30pm
