abstract
  • The PAC was founded in 1955 by the presidents of Western Reserve University (1955-1967), Case Institute of Technology (1955-1970), John Carroll University (1955-1988) and the University of Detroit. Unlike other conferences at that time, the PAC was designed to be controlled by the presidents of the institutions rather than the athletic directors. Member institutions were to admit athletes on the same academic standards as other students and award scholarships only based on academic achievement or need. By 1958, the PAC expanded east to include Allegheny College (1958-1984), Bethany College (1958-present), Thiel College (1958-present) and Washington & Jefferson College (1958-present). Eventually, many other member institutions joined the PAC, like Chatham University (2007-present), Geneva College (2007-present), Grove City College (1958-present), Saint Vincent College (2006-present), Thomas More College (2005-present), Waynesburg University (1990-present) and Westminster College (2000-present). Some former PAC member institutions include Adelbert College (1967-1970), Alfred University (1996-1998), Carnegie Mellon University (1968-1989), Eastern Michigan University (1962-1967), Hiram College (1972-1989) and Wayne State University (1955-1967). The headquarters is located in Wexford, Pennsylvania.
