Motion from EPI in response to the Program Review: Report of the Athletic Task Force issue #6 the Athletic Practice Times Reed D The Scheduling Procedures and Guidelines for Drake Athletics item 8: Current wording Drake University Athletic Council policy prohibits practice by intercollegiate teams from 8 am-3pm, Monday - Friday while school is in session. Proposed replacement wording: The Drake Athletic Department, in consultation with the Intercollegiate Athletic council, will set athletic practice times at appropriate times in order to optimize students’ class schedules, facility usage and student welfare issues. Student Schedules will be set prior to the determination of practice times and if no new practice times are available, teams will practice during the time of 3pm-6pm. EPI further recommends that the athletic department undergo a four year trial period of the new practice time policy in order to adequately review the impact on student-athletes during all years of their eligibility starting in Fall 2002. The Athletic Council should serve as oversight in monitoring this change of practice times. In addition, the academic services staff, in consultation with the Associate Provost, should develop a respectful working relationship between athletics and academics within the advising process so that athletic concerns can be addressed. 10.
