Loyola joins 171 NAIA institutions to receive the Five-Star Institution Award this year and is one of 72 programs to earn the silver distinction according to the Wolf Pack website.
The Wolf Pack has earned this national award eight times overall and has improved from a bronze-level institution in 2014-15 to a silver-level institution for 2015-16.
Member institutions are measured on a detailed commitment to the Champions of Character program and are graded on character training, conduct in competition, academic focus, character recognition and character promotion.
