Huskers Make Historic Move to Big Ten
Nebraska Athletic Director Tom Osborne (left) joined Big Ten Commissioner James Delany (middle) and UNL Chancellor Harvey Perlman (right) as the Huskers were announced as
the newest member of the league starting in 2011-12.
On June 11, 2010, the Big Ten Conference announced that its member schools voted unanimously to
accept the University of Nebraska as the conference’s 12th member beginning on July 1, 2011. The
Big Ten Conference is a union of 12 world-class academic institutions that share a common mission
of research, graduate, professional and undergraduate teaching and public service. The conference’s
100-plus years of history, strong tradition of competitive intercollegiate athletic programs, vast and
passionate alumni base, and consistent leadership in innovations position the Big Ten and its entire
community firmly on the Big Stage.
The Big Ten has sustained a comprehensive set of shared practices and policies that enforce the
priority of academics and emphasize the values of integrity, fairness and competitiveness in all
aspects of its student-athletes’ lives, with the ultimate goal of ensuring that each individual has the
opportunity to live a Big Life.
Big Ten Conference Highlights
• Big Ten universities provide approximately $120 million in direct financial aid to more than 9,500
men and women student-athletes who compete for 25 championships.
• Conference institutions sponsor broad-based athletic programs with 298 teams. Other than the Ivy
League, the Big Ten has the most broad-based athletic programs in the United States.
• Big Ten fans are some of the nation’s most supportive, with nearly nine million patrons attending
conference home contests for football, men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball during 201011. In 2010, the Big Ten set attendance records for overall and average attendance in conference
football games. In men’s basketball, the Big Ten led the nation in average home attendance for the
35th straight season, while Big Ten women’s volleyball also led the nation in total home attendance.
• Over the last 32 seasons, the conference has ranked either No. 1 or No. 2 nationally in football,
men’s basketball and wrestling attendance.
• Big Ten institutions have approximately five million living alumni and nearly 350,000 undergraduate
students attending their universities.
• Based on the U.S. Census projected population for 2010, the nine-state Big Ten region accounts
for approximately 70 million people, which ranks second only to the Big East and well ahead of the
ACC, SEC, Pac-12 and Big 12.
