Section 2 - Drug and Alcohol Policy

The use of drugs and alcohol while attending clinical education is prohibited.

If a preceptor believes that an ATS (Athletic Training Student) is under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, the student will be dismissed for the day and an infraction report will be filed and placed in the ATS's UNL ATP (University of Nebraska-Lincoln Athletic Training Program) permanent file.

If a second incidence occurs, a second infraction report will be filed and placed in the ATS's permanent file. The ATS will also be referred to University Counseling Service, and the ATS will be removed from clinical education until the ATS can verify they have successfully completed an alcohol and drug counseling program.

A third incidence will be grounds for immediate dismissal from the UNL ATP.
