| - Founded in 1909, the RMAC is the fifth oldest college athletic conference in the United States (oldest in Division II), surpassed only by the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the Big Ten Conference, the Ohio Athletic Conference, and the Missouri Valley Conference. For its first thirty years, the RMAC was considered a major conference equivalent to today's Division I, before 7 larger members left and formed the Mountain States Conference (also called the Skyline Conference). The Colorado Faculty Athletic Conference changed its name to the Rocky Mountain Faculty Athletic Conference (RMFAC) on May 7, 1910. Continued until 1967 when the name of the conference changed to the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference. The RMAC merged with the Colorado Athletic Conference in 1996.[citation needed]
- From 1972 to 1975, the conference experimented with a two-conference umbrella organization, the Mountain and Plains Intercollegiate Athletic Association. In 1967, the RMAC split into two divisions, the Mountain Division and the Plains Division. In 1972, the divisions were re-incorporated as separate conferences, the former retaining the RMAC name and the latter calling itself the Great Plains Athletic Conference: {| cellpadding=5 border=1 style="border-collapse:collapse;" width="50%" When the MPIAA dissolved in 1976 due to financial difficulties, CSU-Pueblo transferred to the RMAC, Northern Colorado became an independent, and the two conferences terminated their formal association.
