Student-athletes are expected to follow the existing recreational policies that apply to all students.

Newly recruited student-athletes and returning student-athletes who have returned to campus for scheduled pre-season practices, but are not currently enrolled in summer classes, may receive a temporary pass which will permit use of recreational facilities until the official fall term begins. The head coach shall provide the recreation director with a list of student-athletes, plus ID numbers, who are on campus for official pre-

season practice. Temporary user passes will be returned to the coach for distribution to the student-athlete.
