Students can make an appointment or may seek advising during walk-in hours from 10 a.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1 p.m. daily.

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner Registration is normally completed in the last month of the current semester for the subsequent semester. Many academic departments require students to meet with an academic advisor within the individual department prior to completing the registration process. In addition, student-athletes must consult with the Athletic Advisor prior to initiating the registration process to ensure they complete the appropriate coursework for maintaining student-athlete eligibility and are making progress toward a degree as outlined in NCAA rules. Student-athletes are strongly encouraged to meet with major department and Athletic Advisor well before registration begins to ensure the student registers for appropriate classes and all holds are released. All student-athletes are responsible for understanding all institution rules and regulations that are included in the General Catalog regarding degree completion for their chosen field of study. Student-athletes must become familiar with and adhere to all campus degree policies as well as those of the NCAA. All student-athletes are reminded that certain majors require more stringent GPA for major course work. Student-athletes are responsible for all requirements for their major. If a student drops below the minimum GPA, he/she will be placed on probation for the subsequent semester(s). Probation prevents participation in intercollegiate athletics, some extracurricular activities, and restricts the number of courses that can be scheduled.

ADDING OR DROPPING CLASSES All student-athletes are responsible for enrolling in at least 12 units of academic credit per semester and maintaining an overall GPA of 2.00. Failure to be appropriately enrolled while participating in athletics competition, will lead to loss of eligibility and forfeiture of games that the student-athlete participated in while ineligible. In addition to maintaining a 2.00 GPA and being enrolled in 12 credit hours per semester, student-athletes must make sure they are making progress towards their degree as defined by their program of study. Prior to the beginning of any semester, student-athletes may add or drop classes via the Web Registration System. Once the semester begins, classes may only be added with the consent and signature on an add form by the faculty member teaching the class. Drops can be initiated and completed in the same manner. During registration, a student placed on the waiting list for a class must attend each class until added to the class roster. Student-athletes are reminded that they are not considered enrolled in the class until the student is formally added to the class roster. Faculty will not drop you for non-attendance, it is the student’s responsibility to drop unwanted classes prior to the census date. By utilizing the Web Registration System, the student-athlete may: 1. Receive immediate confirmation of enrollment in a given class. 2. Obtain a list of classes in which they are enrolled, and those for which they are on a waiting list. 3. Identify any holds on their records (advising, health center…etc.). 4. Add/drop classes.

HOLDS In the event a student-athlete does not comply with campus policy a hold may be placed on their records, certain services will be suspended until the hold is addressed. There are several ways in which a student-athlete can find out if a “hold” has been placed on their records including: 1. Financial - the hold will indicate the type of financial hold (housing, non-payment of fees, library fee non-payment). 2. Vaccinations – all students must provide proof of vaccination or immunity to measles (rubeola) and rubella. In addition, if you are 18 years of age or younger, you must also provide proof of vaccination or immunity to Hepatitis B. Proof of these requirements must be submitted to the Student Health Center (SHC) prior to your next registration period to avoid placement of a hold. If this is not possible, the SHC provides both of these Entrance Vaccinations free of charge. 3. Advising - many departments require the student-athlete to visit with their academic advisor each semester. If this is true, the student-athlete must make an appointment with their advisor and be cleared by their academic department prior to registering.

4. Student Discipline – should a student-athlete find him/herself not following through regarding a disciplinary agreement or sanction, a hold may be placed on their records. 5. Equipment - a hold may be placed on a student-athlete’s record for not returning equipment. After one academic year, these holds may result in dismissal from CSU Stanislaus for failure to comply with team policy. Equipment (i.e., uniform, practice gear, playbook) that was checked out at the beginning of the year, must be returned at the end of the season to the appropriate head coach. Equipment issued by the athletic trainer (i.e., crutches, braces) must also be returned at the end of the season. 6. Testing - if the student has not fulfilled the requirement placement tests upon entrance to CSU Stanislaus (i.e., ELM/EPT). When a hold is placed on a student-athlete’s record he/she will be restricted from receiving certain services until the hold is addressed. There are several ways in which a student can find out if a “hold” has been placed on their records including: 1. Utilizing the Web Registration System and viewing their academic record at: http://www.csustan.edu/Admin_Services/Student/ 2. Contacting Athletic Advisor MSR 180, (209) 667-3304

FACULTY ATHLETICS REPRESENTATIVE The Faculty Athletics Representative (FAR) serves as the President’s liaison with the Athletics Department and is responsible for assisting all student-athletes in conflicts with campus faculty members. The FAR is a vital link in interpreting the rules of the NCAA and the CCAA. The FAR assists the athletics department in assuring that all student-athletes make satisfactory progress toward their degree, comply with NCAA and CCAA rules and regulations, and serves as an advocate for the student-athlete in matters relating to the above. The FAR is a regular, tenure-track faculty member of an academic department on campus and has regular office hours. Student-athletes are encouraged to make an appointment and visit with the FAR whenever they have questions or concerns regarding eligibility, compliance, or other issues concerning their academic and athletic careers.

TUTORING AND STUDY HALL Academic tutoring is available through the Tutoring Center on campus. The Student-Athlete Academic Advisor will also establish a regular study hall program for all student-athletes. The Student-Athlete Academic Advisor is available to monitor the progress of each student-athlete and to ensure his/her academic success. The Tutoring Center is available on a “drop-in” basis with peer tutors in specific subject areas. Student-athletes can make an appointment with a specific tutor to address a specific academic challenge that they face. Any student-athlete with a learning disability can receive assistance by utilizing the resources available at the CSU Stanislaus Counseling Center and Testing Services. All resources available at the counseling and testing centers are designed to assist all students with learning disabilities and to provide the appropriate tools or techniques to address the disability to assure success at the college level. The Athletic Advisor, departmental academic advisor or team head coach will assist you in utilizing these services in a confidential manner. The Athletics Department Student-Athlete Study Hall Program has been established to assist at-risk studentathletes to utilize appropriate study habits and time management skills to succeed in the classroom. The department requires students with a GPA of 2.50 (recommended for below 2.50) or less to attend study hall for a specified amount of time per week TBD by coach. This is also required of transfer students with less than a 3.00 GPA, as well as freshman students during their first semester.

Current student-athletes and incoming prospective student-athletes who are in the Turlock area during summer may engage in athletic activities on a strictly voluntary basis. At no time can a workout or activity be at the direction of, or organized or recorded by a CSU Stanislaus coaching staff member. Student-athletes may schedule athletic facilities for voluntary workout use through the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and may access athletic training services according to posted summer hours.

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT & TEAM RULES/REGULATIONS A coach may suspend a student-athlete from team membership for any infraction of the Department of Athletics rules and regulations provided the student-athlete receives due process concerning the violation. A student-athlete may appeal the suspension by contacting the Director of Athletics, who may refer the matter to a committee comprised of faculty members and non-athletics personnel chaired by the Faculty Athletic Representative. It is expected that an open dialogue will occur prior to suspension or removal from a team. The coach will outline transgressions and will attempt to assist the student-athlete in understanding the nature of the breach of rules. Preferably, an informal resolution of the problem can occur without the formal filing of a grievance. A student-athlete, as a member of the University population at-large, is subject to the rules and regulations of student conduct as outlined by the California State University (CSU). All rules and regulations of the CSU are administered by the Office of Student Affairs under the supervision of the Vice President of Student Affairs.

GRIEVANCE PROCEDURES For the purposes of this document, the term “grievance” shall be defined as: “A circumstance thought to be unjust and grounds for review.” This may not infringe upon a coach’s judgment regarding ability. It is the responsibility of the coach to provide each student-athlete with a copy of the grievance procedures. Every student-athlete indicates by signature on the grievance form that: (1) the student-athlete understands the grounds for grievance and the grievance procedures, (2) the student-athlete has a copy of the Student-Athlete Handbook, and (3) the student-athlete agrees to follow the grievance procedures as specified below. RESOLUTION BY COACH 1. A Cal State Stanislaus student-athlete who has a grievance may take the grievance, in writing, to the assistant coach or the head coach under whom the student-athlete participates. 2. Should the student-athlete not want to go directly to the head coach or the assistant coach, the student-athlete may take the written grievance to the team captain and the team captain will inform the appropriate coach of the grievance. 3. A conference will be held between the appropriate coach and the student-athlete. If this conference is held with the assistant coach and the grievance is not resolved, a conference will be held between the student-athlete and the head coach. At the discretion of the student-athlete or the head coach, the captain and/or assistant may participate. The student-athlete and the coaches will use their best efforts to resolve the grievance. RESOLUTION BY DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS (A.D.) 1. If the conference between the student-athlete and coaching staff does not provide a resolution, the dissatisfied party will notify the Director of Athletics who will review the matter and provide a ruling. 2. The A.D. may conference with the involved parties as well as the F.A.R. as is appropriate.

EQUIPMENT AND UNIFORMS Once a student-athlete is placed on a roster, the student-athlete will be issued equipment and/or uniforms appropriate to the sport. It is the responsibility of the student-athlete to care for those articles as though they were his/her own property. A student-athlete must sign for those items issued and is responsible for returning

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner all issued equipment in good order. Failure to return equipment as requested by the coaching staff may result in a hold being placed on your records and could make the student-athlete financially liable for the equipment. Failure to adhere to the equipment issue policy may affect the student-athlete’s ability to register for classes and/or graduation.

FINANCIAL AID Student-athletes at CSU Stanislaus are eligible to receive national, state and campus financial aid in addition to an athletic scholarship. Therefore, all student-athletes must complete a FAFSA form in addition to any other CSU Stanislaus Financial Aid Office forms prior to receiving an athletic scholarship. Athletic scholarships are granted upon the evaluation of the head coach of a respective sport and are renewable on an annual basis. A student-athlete may also receive University financial aid packages based on academic merit, financial need and other forms of federal, state, and private sources as outlined in the University catalog. Student-athletes are strongly encouraged to research their eligibility for appropriate academic financial aid. The Office of Financial Aid counselors are available to assist in determining eligibility for a myriad of scholarships that are available to all University students.

ATHLETIC GRANTS-IN-AID PROGRAM The NCAA and CCAA rules provide that a full athletic scholarship may consist of fees, room and board, and actual book expense allowance for the period of one academic year. Cal State Stanislaus competes at the NCAA Division II level which allows the program to award full or partial athletic scholarships. The maximum dollar amount of an athletic scholarship at CSU Stanislaus is determined by the Office of Financial Aid (the amount it costs a student to live in the Turlock area and attend CSU Stanislaus). The amount of the student-athlete’s athletic scholarship is determined by the student-athlete’s head coach.

GRANT-IN-AID AGREEMENT PROCESS An athletic scholarship is funded based upon athletic ability and is awarded in the following manner: 1. Head Coach recruits the student-athlete and makes an offer for an athletic grant-in-aid. 2. Head Coach formally requests the Office of Financial Aid to prepare the Financial Aid Agreement (FAA) 3. FAA is mailed to the student-athlete with National Letter of Intent (NFL) along with FAFSA application. 4. Student-athlete signs, dates (within 14 days of original date), and returns Financial Aid/NLI Agreement 5. Financial Aid Agreement is returned by Department of Athletics to the Office of Financial Aid.

ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIP AGREEMENT The Athletic Scholarship Agreement is a contract between the University and the student-athlete for the period of one academic year. The agreement binds the University to provide the agreed amount of grant-in-aid funding to the student-athlete for that period of time. Accordingly, if the student-athlete fails to abide by the agreement, the athletic scholarship may be reduced or cancelled. Actions on the part of the student-athlete that may lead to reduction or cancellation of an athletic scholarship, if the student-athlete: 1. becomes academically ineligible (e.g. less than 12 units, GPA lower than 2.00). 2. provides false information on their application, letter of intent, or financial aid agreement. 3. engages in serious misconduct that brings disciplinary action from the University. 4. voluntarily withdraws from the sport, as defined by NCAA regulations. 5. signs a professional contract for this sport. 6. agrees to be represented by an agent and accepts money that causes him/her to exceed the cost of a full grant. 7. accepts money for playing in an athletic contest that causes him/her to exceed the cost of a full grant. Renewals of the athletic scholarship will be mailed no later than July 1 of the given year in which they will be effective.

PAYMENT OF FEES: Athletic scholarships are generally paid at the beginning of each semester, unless otherwise stipulated. Any fees owed for registration, past due or other non-payment charges, are deducted prior to the issuance of any payment to the student-athlete.

HOUSING AND RESIDENTIAL LIFE On-campus housing is available to all students enrolled at CSU Stanislaus. The mission of housing is to provide a safe, clean, well-maintained, and affordable place to live while attending the University. We advise student-athletes to expand their social circle to interact with other residents who share academic interests, hobbies, and other interests that make them well-rounded individuals. The result, most often, is that the residential community can become a great fan base for the athletics program on campus. Principles of good sportsmanship apply to community life as well. All residents are held to community living standards outlined in the Housing and Residential Life Regulations and Behavioral Guidelines. These standards are proven policies that keep the community well-functioning for all community members. All the terms and conditions of the license agreement for housing apply uniformly to all residents, including athletes. If you have any questions about the occupancy period, dining services schedule, room assignment process…etc., it’s best to speak with the staff at the Housing Office for clarification.

HEALTH ISSUES The Department of Athletics maintains secondary medical insurance coverage for all student-athletes. Therefore, all student-athletes who are covered by a family or personal insurance policy must utilize that insurance first when making payment of hospital and medical charges. Expenditures greater than those covered by the student-athletes’ primary insurance carrier, will be paid for by the Department of Athletics secondary insurance policy. Should the student-athlete not have any health insurance coverage, the policy in place at the University shall become the primary carrier. Regardless of the policy, all doctors, hospitals, and other medical details must be cleared through the Athletic Training Office prior to proceeding with care. The insurance policy maintained by CSU Stanislaus will assist in paying those costs incurred as a DIRECT result of participating in intercollegiate athletics at the University. Injuries or illnesses that occur outside of scheduled practices, games, or supervised activities are not covered by the University insurance policy and therefore are the sole responsibility of the student-athlete.

INSURANCE COVERAGE To be eligible for medical treatment at the expense of Cal State Stanislaus, student-athletes must follow all policies established by the office of the Athletic Trainer. Student-athletes must complete a student-athlete medical questionnaire, which will provide all necessary insurance information concerning the student-athlete. All information must be completed and returned in a timely basis to assist the University in providing the appropriate care should the student-athlete become injured. Failure to provide accurate information, or providing false information, may result in an inability to assist in filing a claim and therefore, subject the student-athlete to greater burden of cost concerning the treatment of the injury. In extreme circumstances, the willing failure of a student-athlete to provide accurate insurance information may result in dismissal and cancellation of a grant-in-aid.

ADDITIONAL INSURANCE PROCEDURES The insurance carrier for intercollegiate athletics will not pay for chiropractic care, alternative health care, or other non-traditional forms of health care. Dentistry is not covered unless the student-athlete suffers a dental injury directly related to his/her in-season participation in intercollegiate athletics.

WarriorAthletics.com

In all cases, it is the responsibility of the student-athlete to assist the athletic training staff in filing claims on their behalf. All procedures must be followed in order for medical bills to be paid in a timely manner. Failure to follow proper procedure may result in a loss of credit or the creation of a negative credit history for the student-athlete. The athletic training staff will assist any student-athlete in completing the claim. However, the ultimate responsibility for payment and resolution lies with the student-athlete. The following procedures MUST be adhered to in order to process insurance claims effectively and efficiently. Secondary Insurance Coverage — student-athletes who are covered under an insurance policy by themselves or their parents: 1. All office visits and care must be charged to the primary insurance carrier for payment. 2. After the primary carrier has been paid, less any deductible or co-pays, the health care provider will send any balance via invoice to the student-athlete. 3. The student-athlete then submits these itemized bills with an Explanation of Benefits form showing the amount paid by primary carrier to the athletic trainer. 4. The athletic trainer will submit all unpaid balances to the secondary carrier for payment directly to the provider. Copies of all invoices and the Explanation of Benefits statement will be kept in the student-athlete’s file in the Athletic Training Room. 5. Insurance will not pay for chiropractic care, orthodontics, or a chronic pre-existing condition. Primary Insurance Coverage — when a student-athlete does not have insurance coverage, the University’s secondary insurance policy becomes primary and therefore the student-athlete should: 1. Have the provider send the bill directly to the athletic training office or to the student-athlete. 2. The athletic trainer will submit the claim to the department insurance carrier. Out-of-Season Coverage — The Athletic Department’s medical insurance policy does not cover out-of-season workouts unless the workout is a supervised team activity. Thus, a student-athlete who is injured while participating in an “open gym” or “pick-up” type activity is not covered. In these cases, all incurred costs are the sole responsibility of the student-athlete.

MEDICAL INFORMATION RECORDS Upon admittance to CSU Stanislaus, each student-athlete is required to submit or provide a record of physical examination by a licensed health care practitioner. Recognized practitioners to provide a pre-participation physical examination are: Medical Doctors, Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine, Nurse Practitioners and Physician assistants A physical examination is not required in subsequent years unless the student-athlete has experienced a significant illness or has been separated from the Athletic Department. In these cases, the student-athlete will undergo another exam to verify ability to safely participate. Athletes must also complete health history, insurance questionnaire and drug testing consent forms.

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner ATHLETIC TRAINING ROOM POLICY The coaching staff of each sport will submit a roster of recruits for the upcoming year to the athletic trainer.

1. Injury or Illness Any athletic injury or athletic related illness must be reported to the athletic training staff promptly. It is the responsibility of the student-athlete to report the information in a prompt and accurate manner. The University is not responsible for injuries or illnesses not directly related to participation in intercollegiate athletics activities. However, if a student-athlete is injured out of season, the medical staff shall be notified. The athletic training staff will make the necessary and appropriate medical referrals as indicated. STUDENT-ATHLETES ARE NOT PERMITTED TO SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION WITHOUT THE PRIOR AUTHORIZATION OF THE ATHLETIC TRAINER.

2. Emergencies In the event of a life threatening medical emergency, call 911. For less urgent medical problems or injuries, medical attention should be obtained at the nearest qualified facility. The Student Health Center can be accessed Monday to Thursday (8:00 am – 5:00 pm) & Fridays (9:00 am – 5:00 pm) during normal business hours throughout the academic year. If off-campus facilities are accessed (i.e., emergency room or urgent care), the student-athlete may be responsible for any charges incurred. The athletic trainer must be notified within 24 hours of emergency service. The student-athlete must follow the prescribed procedures for the treatment of athletic injuries. In the event the prescribed procedures are not followed, the Department of Athletics WILL NOT be held responsible for monetary or physical consequences.

3. Pre-existing Injury Neither the insurance carrier nor the University will accept responsibility of expenses for a student-athlete with a pre-existing condition/injury; and therefore will not pay for any treatment related to a pre-existing condition.

4. Injury Treatments Treatments for injuries are administered in the Athletic Training Room. Hours are as follows: • Two hours prior to and 30 minutes after a scheduled athletic contest • 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. during normal working hours • Hours may vary according to event schedules • Student-athletes should schedule appointments for treatment when necessary Morning hours are specifically for follow-up and treatment for injuries. Appointment should be made with the athletic trainer for treatment. Failure to appear for an appointment is a serious matter and disciplinary action may result. The appropriate head coach will be informed of the student-athlete’s failure to appear for a scheduled appointment.

5. Practice/Game Participation of an Injured Athlete Medical decisions regarding the ability of an injured student-athlete to participate in a competition or practice are solely those of the athletic trainer and medical staff. Failure to comply with these decisions may relieve the staff of any further responsibility of the injured or ill student-athlete. Injured or ill student-athletes are expected to report to the athletic trainer for appropriate information on injury disposition and availability for safe participation. No treatments are provided for injured student-athletes during practice unless prior arrangements have been made with both the athletic trainer and the coach.

6. Corrective Lenses The purchase of glasses or contacts lenses for participation in athletics is the responsibility of the studentathlete. The University is not responsible for broken or lost eyewear.

WarriorAthletics.com

7. Referral to Medical Specialist If, in the opinion of the team physician and/or athletic trainer, a student-athlete needs to be referred to a medical specialist for consultation due to an athletic injury, the following procedure must be followed: a. A referral slip will be completed and issued to the student-athletes by the athletic trainer. b. The team physician or the athletic trainer will make an appointment with the consultant on behalf of the student-athlete. Should the student-athlete receive treatment from another physician without following the above procedures or receiving prior authorization, the University will not be responsible for any medical expense not authorized by the training staff.

8. Student Health Center (SHC) The SHC is available to all students. Basic medical procedures and health care are free to all students. Some SHC procedures require a nominal fee for service generally at a rate much lower than at any outside facility. The SHC should be utilized for all appropriate care during normal operating hours. The SHC does not have X-ray capability so specialized radiographic studies are performed off-campus. Standard x-rays in support of basic illness/injury service are provided free of charge to all students. More specialized x-ray studies â&#x20AC;&#x201C; MRI, CT scans are at the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; own expense or can be billed to studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; insurance as applicable. The athletic trainer and team physician will coordinate specialist care and x-rays for injury so as to maximize the health benefits to the student-athlete.

CAL STATE STANISLAUS ATHLETICS DRUG POLICY The CSU Stanislaus Department of Athletics currently conducts a drug and alcohol dependence/stimulant and supplement education program that provides its student-athletes with pertinent information regarding the use of the substances listed below. It is important to note that the program is designed to be educational rather than punitive. A vital part of this educational program is the administration of random drug screening and team testing for all Cal State Stanislaus student-athletes, student trainers, and managers. The objective of the Cal State Stanislaus Drug Education Program is the prevention of drug abuse, and where applicable, to provide treatment of drug abuse. The specific objectives of the Cal State Stanislaus Alcohol and Drug Education program are: 1. To educate student-athletes on the problems related to alcohol and drug abuse. 2. To disseminate information regarding alcohol and drug related problems, as they affect the individual and society. 3. To prevent alcohol and drug abuse by Cal State Stanislaus student-athletes. 4. To establish reasonable safeguards which ascertain the medical competency for participation in athletic competition of each athlete. 5. To identify student-athletes who may be abusing alcohol and drugs, and to identify the type of drug being used by the student-athlete. 6. To provide medical treatment of any chronic dependency when necessary.

THE EDUCATION PROGRAM The education program, in conjunction with the CSU Stanislaus Student Health Center and the Alcohol Awareness Committee, endeavors to provide all students including student-athletes with information and education regarding the use of alcohol and other drugs. The Department of Athletics does not condone the use of any legal or illegal drug for recreational use and notes that performance-enhancing drugs, as noted in NCAA regulations, can represent a serious health problem to an involved student-athlete. The education program is composed of, but not limited to, the following: 1. Display racks with up to date information in the Fitness Center, Athletic Training Room, and Student Health Center. 2. Seminars with teams scheduled in team meetings. Some are mandatory and some are at the request of the head coach. 3. Posters in dressing rooms, dining hall, training room, and weight rooms.

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner 4. NCAA Banned Substances posted every 30 days. 5. Mandatory enrollment by all student-athletes in PHED 3100 (Drugs in the Athletic Environment) class is required for graduation at CSU Stanislaus. PHED 3100 includes a unit of drug/alcohol education.

PROCEDURAL GUIDELINES 1. During the summer prior to the freshman year, incoming student-athletes, managers, and trainers, are given a Cal State Stanislaus Athletic Department Drug Screening Consent Form that must be signed and returned along with all other medical and insurance forms to the Head Athletic Trainer who then maintains the Drug Screening Consent Form as part of the student-athlete’s confidential medical file. 2. Any student-athlete may be tested for cause upon the recommendation of a head coach, trainer, physician, or supervisor. 3. Student-athletes who fail to provide a urine sample either as “no contact” or “is unable to void,” are considered a positive test and will be handled according to the guidelines of a positive result. 4. Collection and initial screening of urine samples are explained in the testing procedures section. 5. Confirmed positive test results are made known by the outside agency responsible for collection and analysis to the Director of Testing. The Director of Testing notifies the Athletic Director, head coach, supervisor, designated physician, and counselor as appropriate. 6. The Director of Testing schedules a meeting with each student-athlete whose urine tested positive for drugs. The student-athlete is referred for alcohol/drug assessment, medical evaluation, and counseling to assist the student-athletes in resolving any substance abuse problems. 7. If a student-athlete fails to comply with required counseling, treatment, or other recommendations for associated with a positive drug test; the student-athlete will be referred to the testing director. The Director of Testing will meet with the head coach, trainer, physicians, and counselor. The physicians and counselor will determine appropriate action and so recommend to the athletic director who has the overall responsibility for the program. 8. Action resulting from the program shall not be made public except as required by all regulations established by Cal State Stanislaus, the CCAA and/or the NCAA.

TESTING PROCEDURES Student-athlete drug testing will be administered by a nationally recognized laboratory capable of collecting and analyzing the urine samples of student-athletes. All samples will be screened for street drugs, including marijuana, and may or may not be screened for performance-enhancing drugs. The screening procedure is administered by an outside agency with materials for collection provided by that agency. These materials include computer sheets for individual identifications (confidential numbers are assigned by testing director), urine samples with assigned number written on bottle, and plastic bag with assigned number for sample and an identification sheet. A member of the testing agency will observe urine voiding and the individually numbered sample is placed in the specimen bag and sealed. These controls are implemented in order to protect confidentiality and to prevent the possibility of an identification mistake. Urine samples of the entire test are acquired in the above method and then taken to the lab for analysis. Within 48 hours the results of each test are returned to the testing director. These test results are compiled by assigned numbers and indicate the presence of any controlled substance. A positive result (actual substance in sample) indicates the specific drug and percentage concentration found in the urine sample.

PLAN FOR POSITIVE RESULT 1. The treatment program for any individual found to have tested positive for drugs consists of an initial referral to the campus Counseling Center. The Counseling Center will provide information and discussion for the involved student-athlete to positively alter the behavior pattern. 2. The student-athlete’s name is deliberately scheduled more frequently to nonrandom screening as deemed necessary for the next 18 months.

WarriorAthletics.com

3. The student-athlete attends counseling and evaluation sessions with a designated counselor until the counselor releases the student. 4. The head coach, trainer, or physician meets weekly with the student during the counseling and evaluation process. 5. If the student-athlete tests positive at a later date, the above action plan will be repeated. If an action different from above is needed, the physician and counselors will submit the altered plan to the Director of Testing. The 18 months non-random testing starts over with the latest positive result.

NCAA BANNED-DRUG CLASSES The NCAA list of banned-drug classes is subject to change by the NCAA Executive Committee. Contact NCAA education services or www.ncaa.org/health-safety for the current list. The term “related compounds” comprises substances that are included in the class by their pharmacological action and/or chemical structure. No substance belonging to the prohibited class may be used, regardless of whether it is specifically listed as an example. Many nutritional/dietary supplements contain NCAA banned substances. In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not strictly regulate the supplement industry; therefore purity and safety of nutritional dietary supplements cannot be guaranteed. Impure supplements may lead to a positive NCAA drug test. The use of supplements is at the student-athlete’s own risk. Student-athletes should contact their institution’s team physician or athletic trainer for further information. Bylaw 31.2.3.1 Banned Drugs link to website www.ncaa.org/health-safety Supplements Nutritional supplements are not strictly regulated and may contain substances banned by the NCAA. Questions concerning banned substances should be referred to Gary Hogan in the Athletic Training Room. Student-athletes are encouraged to seek prior approval from Mr. Hogan before taking any supplements. Student-athletes may also check the NCAA website for up-to-date information at http://www.ncaa.org Repeated violation of the banned substance abuse policy may result in: • Exclusion from the team • Loss of athletic scholarship funding • Suspension or expulsion from school

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner MEDIA RELATIONS The Sports Information Office at Cal State Stanislaus has been established to assist Warrior student-athletes in all phases of dealing with the media. What follows are rules, suggestions, and procedures important to you as a student-athlete at Cal State Stanislaus when speaking with the media. First, always remember that members of the media are assigned to report on Warrior athletics and all those people associate with the programs and teams. Most of the media representatives are supportive of the Cal State Stanislaus athletics programs its athletes and the coaches associated with the program. However, student-athletes should always remember that it is NOT the job of media representative to cast the student-athlete or coach in a positive light. The manner in which the student-athletes conduct themselves when dealing with the media will go a long way in the manner in which the story is reported. Student-athletes are encouraged to be honest with the media representative and answer only those questions asked by the media. Never volunteer extra information or go “off the record “ with the media representative. Sports fans locally, and to some degree regionally and nationally, become acquainted with studentathletes through the athlete’s relationship with the media, as well as, through the student-athlete’s competitive efforts. Few fans will know our student-athletes personally. Therefore, how the student-athlete relates to and works with the media is important to the individual student-athlete, the team, and the University. Student-athletes at CSU Stanislaus have an obligation to positively promote the University whenever dealing with the media. A member of the Cal State Stanislaus Sports Information staff or your head coach will coordinate all interviews with the media when members of the media have made requests. Student-athletes should make every effort to be available for interviews arranged by the Office of Sports Information when requested to do so. When student-athletes participate in the interview process, they will learn skills of communication that will be an asset forever. The entire University will also benefit from the exposure generated by your cooperation with the media. Finally, the fans that help support our programs will become more committed and involved with the Cal State Stanislaus athletics program because of greater media coverage. If a student-athlete feels uncomfortable about interviews or has any questions regarding media relations, please feel free to stop by the Sports Information Office, located in the PE Annex (near the Student Recreation Complex) Room 111 or contact Hung P. Tsai, Assistant Athletics Director for Communications and Sports Information, at (209) 667-3168, htsai@csustan.edu. WARRIOR ATHLETICS WEBSITE The Sports Information staff is also responsible for maintaining the official Web site of Warrior Athletics, WarriorAthletics.com. A major part of the Web site are the Student-Athlete biographies and statistics — all made available to the general public. Necessary changes should be reported to your head coach to relay to the sports information staff to update the informationon the site.

WarriorAthletics.com

INTERVIEW TIPS All interviews should be coordinated through the Sports Information Office or your head coach. 1. Student-athletes should only grant interviews when a member of the Sports Information staff or the head coach has made the arrangements for the interview. 2. Never take calls at home from members of the media without your prior approval. 3. Never miss class to do an interview. 4. Remind members of your family that they may be contacted by members of the media and tell them that they are not obligated to conduct these interviews, especially in times of trouble and/or conflict. Interview DO’s 1. Speak in short, complete sentences. This helps to make sure you are not misunderstood. 2. Be human – many of you have fascinating stories to tell of your life away from sports, so don’t be afraid to talk about it. 3. Praise teammates – there are a lot of other people who help make you a success. 4. You are a celebrity; expect to lose some of your privacy. You are not treated the same as other Cal State Stanislaus students. Because you are a celebrity, you will receive attention for your mistakes in and outside of athletics. 5. Never speak “off the record” to a reporter, expect everything you say to be used by the reporter. 6. Know what will be discussed in advance. The person in the Sports Information office arranging the interview can tell you what the subject matter will be. 7. Be animated – lively sports figures are the most quotable. 8. Look good; be confident but not cocky. 9. Be humble in victory and gracious in defeat Interview DON’TS 1. Don’t relax; when reporters are around, don’t say anything or do anything you would not want reported, printed, or put on the air. 2. You are live – assume anytime you can see a camera, microphone or report note pad you are being recorded. 3. Phone calls should be considered on the record and live from the time you pick up the receiver until you hang up; do not relax and think what you are chatting about will not be reported. 4. Don’t play referee – don’t whine about an official’s call; avoid such references as “he blew the call” or “that was a bad call.”

Student-Athlete Handbook & Planner California Collegiate Athletic Association The California Collegiate Athletic Association has been the nation’s most successful intercollegiate athletic conferences since its establishment in December 1938. The 12-member league is home to some of the nation’s finest NCAA Division II athletic programs in Cal Poly Pomona, Cal State Dominguez Hills, Cal State L.A., Cal State San Bernardino, Cal State Stanislaus, Chico State, CSU, Monterey Bay, Humboldt State, UC San Diego, San Francisco State, Sonoma State and its newest member Cal State East Bay. CCAA institutions compete in seven women’s and six men’s conference-sponsored sports. Fall sports include men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer and women’s volleyball. Men’s and women’s basketball are contested in the winter, and women’s tennis, men’s golf, men’s and women’s outdoor track & field, softball and baseball comprise spring competition. CCAA members have won 148 NCAA Championships (100 men, 48 women) all time, far and away the most of any Division II conference. On the men’s side, CCAA members have brought home at least 10 titles in swimming & diving (25), wrestling (16), track & field (13), tennis (11) and baseball (10). CCAA institutions have been very successful in the history of NCAA women’s athletics, having won 10 cross country, nine softball, six track & field, five volleyball and five basketball national championships as well as 18 more in four other sports. The CCAA Commissioner’s Office relocated from southern California to the San Francisco Bay Area-suburb of Walnut Creek in July 1998. Robert J. Hiegert is in his 11th year as the Commissioner.
