the country, their compensation is among the lowest of their peers. This fund will provide much-needed assistance in this area. Recruiting: Carolina has always attracted the finest student-athletes, but in the past decade the resources used in Olympic sports programs nationally has increased the competition to attract the country’s best. This funding will provide our coaches the means necessary to recruit the brightest and best to Chapel Hill. Travel: To remain the best, Carolina must play the best. The ability to take the field against the best in the country is a part of the broad experience a student-athlete enjoys at Carolina ... and funding for travel is necessary to continue to compete at that level. Hoping to mirror the success and stability of The Rams Club’s Scholarship Endowment Trust, the Olympic sport endowments have a goal of $1 million for each individual program.
