The Mid-American Conference announced Thursday the adoption of four time obligation proposals for full implementation for the 2017-18 academic year.
The MAC's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee developed the proposals. The MAC SAAC is led by President Kelsi White, a field hockey senior at Miami (OH).
"As student-athletes, we are all very appreciative for the support and consideration of our voice we have received from the Athletic Directors up to this point," White said in a press release.
The proposals address four requirements for student-athletes:
1) Establish a two-week time off period from required athletics activity following the end of a championship season segment.
