Detection is automated and re-run as directories refresh: absence means not detected, not not used, and contracts change, so confirm with the department before relying on a single listing.

This page is published when at least 2 covered Southern Conference schools use the vendor; smaller combinations are kept out of search indexes. The conference's own page is Southern Conference Athletics Staff Directory; every Van Wagner school nationally is on Which colleges use Van Wagner?.
