The Lake Michigan Conference (or LMC) was an intercollegiate athletic conference affiliated with the NCAA’s Division III. Member institutions were all located in the State of Wisconsin except Dominican University. LMC schools joined with some schools from the Northern Illinois-Iowa Conference in 2006-07, creating the Northern Athletics Conference. The conference was formed as the Wisconsin Conference of Independent Colleges (WCIC) in 1974 with nine charter members.
