Miner Eligibility Eligibility rules apply to all students who participate in competitive activities for which the College makes an award. Special rules apply to all members of social and service clubs. In order to be eligible to represent the College in any competitive activity, the student must: (1) be graduated from a standard high school, or have fifteen units of high school work; (2) be registered for at least ten hours of college work, or the equivalent amount in the terminal division; and (3) have passed ten hours of college work, or its equivalent, during the last quarter of attendance. Eligibility for social and service clubs shall be according to the regulations of the Inter-club Council; namely, the student must: (1) be registered for ten hours of college work, or its equivalent in the terminal division; and (2) have a grade point of 1.0 in all work. Eligibility must be affirmed twice during the quarter; namely, after the fourth and eighth weeks, or oftener if the director of the activity so desires. Failure to pass ten hours of college work, or its equivalent in the Terminal Division, places the students on probation for two weeks. If, at the end of the probationary period, work is not made up to a satisfactory level, the student is declared ineligible for the quarter. Social and service club members who fail to maintain a 1.0 grade point in all work are declared ineligible until the deficiency is removed. Weber College aims to keep the individual working at his maximum capacity as well as to maintain wholesome standards for those in competition. The Guidance Committee may advise that students of exceptional ability who are not showing a commendable attitude toward their work be declared ineligible in spite of the fact that these students are living up to the letter of the eligibility rules. The Eligibility Committee has the power to waive these rules in special cases upon recommendation of the Administration or Guidance Committee. In interschool athletics, however, participants are bound by the regulations of the Intermountain Junior College Athletic Conference. Instructors in charge of an activity must file the names of their candidates for the activity two weeks before active competition begins. Directors of the opera, drama, the College paper, the College magazine, and the yearbook shall file their list of participants before any position, part, or office is officially given. In the case of an opera, or a College play, eligibility extends throughout the full duration of the production. In all other cases, eligibility must be affirmed at the end of the fourth and eighth week period as stated above. Student Liability Weber College is not in any way liable for injuries or illnesses of athletes which result from participation in the activities sponsored by the College. It is assumed that all who engage in athletics have received permission from parent or guardian to participate and to accept full responsibility. |
