NJCAA 75th ANNIVERSARY In May 1938, representatives from area institutions of higher learning gathered in Fresno, Calif., to form a unique collegiate athletic organization dedicated to America’s community and junior colleges. The meeting led to the adoption of a constitution and representatives in attendance formally announced the new organization as the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). Seventy-five years after its inaugural season (1938-39), the NJCAA is now the second-largest national intercollegiate athletics governing body in the United States with over 500 member colleges in 43 states. Recognized as the leader in two-year collegiate athletics, the NJCAA champions both athletic and academic opportunities for student-athletes in concert with member colleges. To commemorate its 75th Anniversary, the NJCAA has launched a year-long campaign to celebrate the milestones, student-athletes, coaches and administrators that have helped shape the organization and advance two-year collegiate athletics over the past eight decades. Throughout the 2012-13 academic year, the NJCAA will celebrate its 75th Anniversary through various outlets, including a special section of the NJCAA website (njcaa.org/75). Traditional press releases will be distributed to member colleges as well as regional and national media during the 2012-13 sports season and special 75th Anniversary content will be produced for the organization’s monthly publication – NJCAA Review. NJCAA TV – powered by iHigh.com, as well as Facebook and Twitter will be used to help keep member colleges, fans and followers informed on the latest 75th Anniversary news and announcements. 4
