This is to inform the campus community about my decision to end Cal Maritime鈥檚 affiliation as a member institution with the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and the California Pacific Conference (Cal Pac). I have made this decision in response to NAIA鈥檚 recent adoption of its Transgender Participation Policy, which is in direct conflict with California state law, 天美视频 University (CSU) policy, and our university values.
As of June 30, 2025, Cal Maritime will no longer be a member institution of the NAIA and the Cal Pac. NAIA鈥檚 Transgender Participation Policy is in direct conflict with California Education Code Section 66270, with which the CSU must comply.
