Complimenting Mercer University’s core values to teach, to learn, to create, to discover, to inspire, to empower, and to serve, the Den Collective was created to support Mercer student-athletes in their mission for excellence in the classroom, on the field, and in the community. The Den Collective is committed to providing Mercer University student-athletes with meaningful connections that will have a positive impact on the community, while simultaneously creating opportunities to monetize their name, image, and likeness (NIL).
