Will donations still support scholarships through the Ever Loyal Club?
Yes. The Ever Loyal Club will continue to support all aspects of the student-athlete experience which includes student-athlete scholarships. The Panther Champions Scholarship Program will continue to be a valuable giving opportunity for donors interested in contributing to named (annually funded or endowed) scholarships and receiving Ever Loyal Club benefits and UNI Athletics Priority Points.
Why was this change made?
The Panther Scholarship Club rebranded to the Ever Loyal Club to provide transparency on how Ever Loyal Club funds will be used. As the unrestricted annual fund for the Athletics Department the Ever Loyal Club will not be assigned to a specific sports program, department unit, or special project. These funds will be used to cover the variety of expenses that are part of the student-athlete experience.
Will any of the Ever Loyal Club funds be used for revenue sharing (NIL)?
No, all UNI Athletic revenue sharing comes from the Competitive Excellence funds while all Ever Loyal Club funds are used toward the student-athlete experience.
How does this transition effect my Panther Priority Points?
All Panther Points will transition to the new Ever Loyal Club and operate as the same in the past. Priority seating will operate by Ever Loyal Club level first and then your Panther Point amount.
How can I check my Panther Priority Points or membership status?
You can view your Panther Points and membership level via your Paciolan University of Northern Iowa ticket account. Your account can be accessed via the my account link on SupportThePanthers.com or by visiting the UNI Athletics ticket site. Every supporter of the Ever Loyal Club has an account in our system so if you do not know your login information please contact us at everloyal@uni.edu.
How will the Ever Loyal Club effect required seating donations?
The Ever Loyal Club will be the new designation for all required seat donations. Required seat donations are integrated into all of our Panther athletics ticketed sports to ensure support of the student athlete experience for our 420+ student-athletes. Required seat donations also count toward your Ever Loyal Club membership.
Were changes made to the Ever Loyal Club giving levels?
