Athletic Department
Student-Athlete Class Attendance Policy |
- Student-athletes should take into consideration the practice and game schedules when scheduling classes.
- Coaches will make every attempt to work with the class schedules in regards to practices.
- Student-athletes are not to miss class for any practice, fund-raiser, scrimmage, and picture taking session or any other related activities.
- If coaches are aware of his/her student-athletes missing class unnecessarily, they should be disciplined until the class attendance policy is adhered to.
- In regards to scheduled competitions, the student can ask the individual professor/s IN ADVANCE for permission to attend the game/competition. However, if the professor cannot or will not make special arrangements, the student-athlete is advised to attend the class or be ready to accept the consequences.
- Remember when there is an academic-athletic conflict the academic take priority. This is one reason that we carry more than the minimum number of players on each squad.
- There are no REGULAR SEASON competitions scheduled during the exam weeks.
- NOTE: Post season dates are set by regional and national offices years in advance and Aquinas has no control over these.
