NOTIFICATION AND REPORTING FOR COLLECTIONS
Usually, but not always, student-athletes will be notified and scheduled for an impending drug test no earlier than the evening before a morning test session. However, under this policy, no notice testing is permissible. The Director of Athletics or his/her designee will notify the student-athlete, in person or by direct telephone communication of the date and time to report to the Hull Center for Athletics for sample collection. Voice messages and emails are not acceptable forms of notification for this purpose and will not be used. The student-athlete will read and sign the Student-Athlete Notification Form (See Appendix E) acknowledging that he/she has been notified of the drug test and verifying the date and time of the test. The student-athlete also acknowledges that failure or refusal to appear, or tampering with the urine sample will constitute a positive test result and will be subject to disciplinary action. Additionally, tardiness will not be tolerated and failure to appear at the designated arrival time will result in suspension of 10 percent of the student-athlete's current or next competitive season as applicable.
The Director of Athletics or his/her designee will be in the testing station to certify the identity of the student-athletes selected. Student-athletes shall provide a University issued Student ID and state issued driver's license when entering the drug testing station. The Director of Athletics or his/her designee will remain at the site until all student-athletes complete the collection process.
ALL COLLECTIONS AND/OR TESTING UNDER THIS POLICY SHALL BE OBSERVED BY CERTIFIED AND TRAINED STAFF MEMBERS FROM THE NATIONAL CENTER OF DRUG FREE SPORT.
