2 WEBBER INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY Department of Athletics Drug Testing Policy and Procedures The Department of Athletics at Webber International University is committed to the physical and mental health and well-being, safety, and welfare of its student-athletes. The improper use of prescription drugs, use of illicit street drugs, use of diuretics, and use of performance enhancers/dietary supplements (legal or illegal) can have a negative effect on the health and performance of student-athletes. It is for this reason that random drug testing is conducted and attested to by student- athletes in the Drug Testing Consent form. Random drug testing is also conducted by the Webber International University Department of Athletics for the purposes of and in the manner herein defined. The purposes of drug testing and education are as follows: To serve as a deterrent to the use of illicit drugs and banned substances To identify those who are using these illicit drugs and banned substances To promote education for all student-athletes To provide counseling and treatment services for student-athletes To avoid harm to the reputation of Webber International University and all those connected with its intercollegiate athletic program Compliance and Eligibility: As a condition of eligibility, all student- athletes must sign the Webber International University Drug Testing Consent form to allow for testing and limited release of test results, as set forth in these procedures. Testing will be conducted for all student-athletes on the squad list, including student-athletes actively participating, student-athletes with medical limitations, student-athletes who are red-shirted, and student-athletes who are partial or non-qualifiers. Any student- athlete who refuses to sign the Webber International University Drug Testing Consent form will be declared ineligible for participation in intercollegiate athletics. Banned Substance List: The Department of Athletics at Webber International University utilizes the most current List of Banned Drug Classes referred to as banned substances for its drug testing policy. The list consists of substances generally believed to be performance enhancing and/or potentially harmful to the health and safety of the studentathlete. The drug classes specifically include: Stimulants, Anabolic Agents, Alcohol and Beta Blockers, Diuretics and Other Masking Agents, Street Drugs, Synthetic Drug Substances, Peptide Hormones and Analogues, Anti-Estrogens, and Beta- 2 Agonists. Any substance that is chemically related to the class of banned drugs, unless otherwise noted, is also banned. Medical Exceptions: Student-athletes who are taking prescription or non-prescription medications, under the direction of a licensed physician, are required to report any/all medication currently being taken to the Athletic Training staff via their medical history form as part of their annual pre-participation physical exam at the beginning of each Drug Testing ( ) 2

3 academic year. If, after reviewing this information, further documentation is necessary, the student-athlete will be notified and will have to provide further information from their treating physician as explained in the medical exceptions packet. Failure to report medications and provide necessary medical documentation from the treating physician can result in positive drug testing results, and Department of Athletics sanctions. DRUG TESTING PROCEDURE Random and Individual Testing Selection/Frequency: All WIU student-athletes are subject to drug testing. Selection for the drug testing will occur randomly throughout the academic year, by sport roster using a 10% draw (rounded up) of the total number of student-athletes on the roster. The policy will be followed throughout a student-athlete s eligibility with the WIU Athletic Department. The Director of Athletics, and/or his/her designee will determine the date, time, and site for testing. WIU will conduct random drug testing a minimum of one (1) time every four to six weeks, up to a maximum of once every twenty-four hours. All student-athletes are eligible for each testing cycle. Therefore, student-athletes may be tested multiple times per semester/year. Testing for Reasonable Cause: All student-athletes are subject to year round testing for reasonable cause. For purposes of this section, cause shall be defined as behavior, conduct, or performance by the student-athlete which leads the Assistant Athletic Director to conclude that there is the likelihood that the student-athlete is taking or is under the influence of illegal drugs and/or banned substances. Among indications which may be used in evaluation of a student-athlete s behavior, conduct or performance are: class attendance, significant GPA changes, athletic practice attendance, increased injury rate or illness, changes in physical appearance, academic/athletic motivational level, emotional condition, mood changes, and legal involvement. Reasonable cause may be based on information received that a student-athlete is using illegal drugs. In such cases, the determination that cause exists to require a studentathlete to submit to testing will be made after consultation between the Director of Athletics, Assistant Athletic Director, and Head Coach of the respective sport. The team physician will be consulted, if needed. The Director of Athletics or Assistant Athletic Director must agree that the observations, behavior, conduct or performance of the student-athlete are such that testing for cause is required to protect the health of the student-athlete, the health of others, and/or to protect the integrity of the sport program. In such cases, less than two hours notice for a drug test may be given. Team Testing: A team may be tested at any time without notice and without a reasonable cause. Notification Process: A. Upon selection for testing, student-athletes will be notified during practice by a member of the Athletic Training Staff (those athletes in the off-season will be notified during their designated time of weights).

A "no show" will carry the same sanction as a positive test result, and the student-athlete will be subject to penalties and sanctions set forth in the WIU Drug Testing Policy and Procedures. Collection Procedures: Drug testing will be done by urinalysis. Every possible measure will be taken to ensure the identity and integrity of the sample throughout the collection and testing process and confidentiality of the test. Urinalysis A. Only those persons authorized by the WIU Director of Athletics and/or his/her designee and/or the Test Site Coordinator will be allowed in the specimen collection and processing area. B.

D. Upon entering the collection station, the student-athlete will show his/her picture ID and will be identified by the Test Site Coordinator and/or his/her designee. The student-athlete will record the time of arrival and print his/her name on the WIU Drug Testing Roster Form. E. The chain of custody form (provided by the laboratory) will be completed by a drug testing crewmember and signed by the student-athlete. F.

A minimum specimen of at least 60 ml is required. 2. If a student-athlete has difficulty voiding, he/she may drink fluids approved by the Test Site Coordinator. Such fluids must be caffeine-free, alcohol-free and free of any other banned substances. 3. If the specimen is incomplete, the student-athlete must remain in the collection station with the sample until the sample is complete. During this period, the student-athlete is responsible for keeping the collection beaker controlled and visible at all times. 4. If the specimen is incomplete and the student-athlete must leave the collection station for a reason approved by the Test Site Coordinator, the specimen must be discarded. Upon return to the collection station, the student-athlete will be required to begin the collection procedure again. I.

If the studentathlete tests positive for a banned substance upon entering the Safe Harbor Program, that positive test result will not result in any administrative sanction. (The team physician may suspend the student- athlete from play or practice if medically indicated). A studentathlete will be permitted to remain in the Safe Harbor Program for a reasonable period of time as to be determined by the Assistant Athletic Director. A student-athlete will not be permitted to enter the Safe Harbor Program thirty (30) days prior to Conference or post-season competition.
