These leaders can now readily compare their institution data from other colleges statewide. This study included the entire population of North Carolina’s 58 public community and technical colleges. Frequencies and percentages were utilized by the researcher to report the information. Data were collected to provide an overview of intercollegiate athletics at North Carolina’s public community and technical colleges.
