• Issue Answer: Flag Football has been using Redman 7-11pm for the past couple years now.  It has been an expanding Intramural program in terms of number of participants/teams.  Our grass football fields are typically used until 6pm daily (not much daylight left after that), and the lighted Recreation Fields are used for club sport practices and other Intramural programs such as Softball.  Therefore, as part of an ongoing partnership between Athletics and Campus Recreation, our turf fields are used by various club and IM groups, including flag football.  In turn, Athletics will use Campus Recreation facilities for camps and tournaments when we are in need of extra space. As far as flag football practices, that is not something that Redman is being used for.

o        The PSAC Sportsmanship Award was initiated in the 2008-09 academic year and is given annually to one male and one female student-athlete that best exemplifies the spirit of sportsmanship and who has demonstrated the values of respect and integrity through a specific action ideally directed toward an opponent. Nominees must also have represented his/her institution in a positive way during competition and must have demonstrated good citizenship outside of competition by fostering a good public image.

Opportunities:
DII SAAC At-Large Position:
Vacancy on the Division II Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) for an at-large student-athlete representative.  (The at-large positions on the SAAC are intended to enhance diversity of representation, and all conferences are eligible to submit nominees).

2013 NCAA Student-Athlete Leadership Development:
The educational forum will provide pertinent and customized sessions that will enhance personal awareness and leadership skills needed to impact student-athlete  development (need 1 female, 1 male, from two different sports, must have participating eligibility in 2013-14).

Roongo's Rewards Program:
This is an effort to attract more students to sporting events by offering points for attending BU home events. Once a student is registered they just need to scan the QR code (found in every program) to get the points for that game. Most games are 10 points, but values can be changed if there is a big event. Students can then trade those points in for prizes like coupons from Burger King; t-shirts; ski passes, Perkins coupons.  The more points you earn the bigger the prize.

Much like a twitter account, people post photos and statuses. It is important to watch what you say because it can affect you for years to come. Not many people said that they had an account, but many had heard of it.

3. Do work, not a hangout spot
4. Study Hall

- Revised Policy:  Radio version songs approved, need to supply a playlist when giving their CD to their coach (so that lyrics can be researched online)

• We (athletic administration) still reserve the right to deem a song inappropriate for play at any of our venues.  There are songs that are played on the radio that may contain material that does not properly represent BU Athletics.  Songs that reference any of the following, especially repeatedly, will not be allowed.  If any song is deemed “questionable,” the Athletic Director will make the final determination on whether or not it is acceptable for play.
• -Violence                                              -Drugs and Alcohol
• -Explicit Sexual Content                  -The “N” Word
• -Derogatory words that are on the border of being swears (example: b!tch)

                Is it a coach rule or athletic administration that football has no words in the music.
                Strike....
                                If a strike happens what happens?
                                Nothing to worry about as of now
                                               
-Sportsmanship Award:
