Intercollegiate athletics represents a characteristic that is unique to American higher education. Nowhere else in the world of higher education is this the case. In American society, there is a belief that athletics has decided worth for the student who wants to develop and display their talents in a competitive setting with other students. Pratt Institute shares in this belief and the grand experiment of having athletics in higher education. The philosophy of the athletics program is to provide the student-athlete a competitive learning experience in an academic environment, which will lead ultimately towards the completion of a degree. The athletics program is one means of promoting the Institute and is a service to both the campus (participants, student body, faculty, and staff) and the general public (community, area, and state). The athletics program is also considered a means of fostering the development of the whole person, sportsmanship, and positive societal attitudes in student-athletes.
This Institute is dedicated to providing an educationally based intercollegiate athletics program that provides:
a spiritual, emotional, recreational and competitive learning experience
a high level of physical fitness, healthful living and self expression through physical activity
an academic-oriented commitment for developing sound character and good sportsmanship
a clear line of demarcation between college athletics and professional sports
a sound basis for building great sports programs without sacrificing academic achievement
a full compliance approach to NCAA, ECAC, CTC and HVAC rules and regulations
a program assuring equal opportunity for all students and complies with federal regulations regarding non-discrimination.
The intercollegiate athletics program has determined that in order to realize these and other expectations, it must have strong commitments for:
providing professional staff members with a thorough orientation to the Institute's goals and expectations
providing an education to each student-athlete rather than merely the financial assistance to obtain an education
meeting the number of athletic participants and athletic contests for all sports programs that are comfortable to other competitive Division III Schools
scheduling contests in a manner that permits athletes and coaches opportunities to attain optimal levels of excellence;
providing a source of wholesome entertainment and fellowship between and among college and community constituents.
On October 17, 1887, twelve young people climbed the stairs of the new "Main" building and began to fulfill the dream of Charles Pratt as the first students at Pratt Institute.
Charles Pratt, one of eleven children, was born the son of a Massachusetts carpenter in 1830. He managed to scrape a few dollars together and spend three winters as a student at Wesleyan Academy, and is said to have lived on a dollar a week at times. In Boston, he joined a company specializing in paints and whale oil products. When he came to New York, he worked for a similar company and expanded the interest to Astral Oil. When the company split, Charles Pratt owned the oil business and turned it into the most successful such company in Brooklyn, eventually merging with Standard Oil. Charles PrattŐs fortunes increased and he became a leading figure in Brooklyn, serving his community and his profession. A philanthropist and visionary, he supported many of Brooklyn's major institutions including the Adelphi Academy and the building of Emmanuel Baptist Church. He always regretted, however, his own limited education and dreamed of founding an institution where pupils could learn trades through the skillful use of their hands. This dream was realized when Pratt Institute opened its doors over 100 years ago. Only four years after the opening, Charles Pratt died, leaving the job of guiding the Institute through its early years to his sons, primarily Charles Pratt, Jr. The energy, foresight, money and spirit Charles Pratt gave to his dream remains even today. Here careers are molded, and goals, like those of Charles Pratt, are encouraged. Inscribed on the seal of the Institute is the motto:
"Be True To Your Work And Your Work Will Be True To You"
The Pratt Cannoneers take their name from the 19th century cannon which stands prominently near the entrance to the campus. Cast in bronze in Seville, Spain, the cannon bears the insignia of Philip the Fifth and was brought to Pratt from the walls of Morro Castle in Havana, Cuba in 1899. The cannon has been the focal point for student expression over the years. In the 60's it was surrounded by psychedelic colors; during the strike-torn early 70's it was painted black and more than once it has played a part in a conceptual art piece. In 1973, a group of students scraped, scrubbed and polished the cannon to its original brilliance so that once again its beautifully cut ornamentation was revealed.
