Athletic Program Guidelines and Philosophy
Philosophy of Athletic Programs
The primary aim of the Wright State University-Lake Campus program of intercollegiate
athletics is to promote and provide a variety of opportunities for men and women
to participate in advanced levels of competition with students from other colleges
and universities in Ohio and Indiana. We believe that this organized competition
should provide a source of institutional pride and spirit for the total university
community.

Insurance
Athletes are required to carry primary insurance to cover any medical cost associated with an injury that may occur while participating in club sports at the Lake Campus. Examination by a Physician is highly recommended before participation.
Code of Conduct
It is understood that participating in the WSU-Lake Campus athletic program is
to be considered a privilege, not a right. Because student athletes represent
