Members
The EIVA comprises eight teams, all but one from the NCAA's Division I level. The only non-Division I member is Division III Rutgers–Newark. Because that school traditionally competed in the former University Division in men's volleyball before the NCAA created its current three-division setup in 1972, it is allowed to award scholarships in that sport, making it one of only seven D-III schools allowed to do so.

Famous quotes containing the word members:
“A multitude of little superfluous precautions engender here a population of deputies and sub-officials, each of whom acquits himself with an air of importance and a rigorous precision, which seemed to say, though everything is done with much silence, “Make way, I am one of the members of the grand machine of state.””
—Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)
“I understand that only the rich can be members of Dr. C---’s church. The Lord Christ, also, is therefore ineligible. I will remain outside with Him.”
—Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)
“...wasting the energies of the race by neglecting to develop the intelligence of the members to whom its most precious resources must be entrusted, already seems a childish absurdity.”
—Anna Eugenia Morgan (1845–1909)
