The University of Akron Athletics
Zips Fan Council
The purpose of the Zips Fan Council is to foster dialogue between Fans, Alumni, Donors, Season Ticket Holders, and Akron Students with the Department of Athletics. This dialogue encompasses topics directly related to the fan experience, ticket sales, and other subjects pertinent to intercollegiate athletics events.
Council members are chosen with the intent of building a committee that represents the broad spectrum of Zips Fans. The mission of the Zips Fan Council is to represent the voice of the fan in supporting Akron Athletics in initiatives designed to increase the fan base and enhance the experience for the entire Zips Community.
Each appointment towards the Zips Fan Council lasts for one year, with the potential to renew for two additional years. Committee members must commit to attending at least four meetings each year. Meetings last approximately two hours and are scheduled to accommodate the Council members best. While meeting in person is preferred, virtual meeting access is available for members who are unable to attend. Council positions are limited, and applicants will be asked to participate in an interview process.
