All JMU students are invited to join the Student Duke Club (SDC), the official student fan section of JMU Athletics that provides students the opportunity to grow the “We Bleed Purple” culture together! SDC is a philanthropic student membership group, with a $25 annual commitment, that grants members exclusive benefits including: SDC apparel, exclusive seating at JMU athletic events, early access to premier athletic events, and invites to members-only events throughout the year.
By completing this brief survey, you're invited to share a glance into the JMU student fan experience — through the lens of SDC members — as we spotlight student donors who are making an impact on JMU athletics.
- From tailgating, game day traditions and student section fan fun...
- To favorite sport teams and favorite JMU sports history moments...
- To reflections on why they donate to SDC and why/how they encourage fellow JMU students to give too!
