“Intercollegiate Athletics at CSU provides the opportunity for students to participate in competitive team and individual sports in an educational setting. In 2003, over 45% of our student-athletes earned the academic distinction of Scholar Marauder status which denotes a 3.0 GPA for an academic term.
