A Scholar

Accountable/Responsible

They will also regularly attend all assigned classes and any unexcused absences will have consequences.

A teammate

1. 1. • Each student-athlete understands that being a part of a team means they may have to work with others with different perspectives. As a teammate respect should be given to all no matter differences in opinion, race, gender, ethnicity, political views, or religious beliefs.
