At times, student-athletes make decisions to take a performance enhancing substance based on information read about or hear from others.

These are marketed to the public or sold on the internet as “performance enhancing” but research in the area of enhancing performance has shown doubtable improved overall performance. Some examples of these include but not limited to: protein powders/pills, creatine, amino acid supplements, alcohol, amphetamines, barbiturates, caffeine, ephedrine, cocaine, LSD, PCP, Marijuana or synthetic marijuana, tobacco products, nitric oxide, beta blockers, diuretics, Beta-2 agonists, and anabolic-androgenic steroids & precursors, like: testosterone epitestosterone human growth hormone EPO androstenedione DHEA, and herbal substances, like: ma huang ephedra kava (aka: ava, ava peper, awa, kava root, Kawa, rauschpfeffer, sakau, tonga, yangona gensing gotu kola bitter orange (aka: citrus aurantium amara, zhi shi) UWM and the NCAA Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sports understands athletes are searching for safe, legal, and effective ways to improve their athletic performance.

  • Student Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program
    Student Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program Health Risks and Effects: Alcohol and drug usage causes a number of marked changes in behavior. Even low doses significantly impair the judgment and coordination required to drive a car safely. Low to moderate doses of alcohol also increase the incidence of a variety of aggressive acts, including domestic violence and date rape. Moderate to high doses of alcohol cause mark impairments in higher mental functions, severely altering a person’s ability to learn and remember information. Very high doses cause respiratory depression and death. Repeated use of alcohol and drugs can lead to dependence. Sudden cessation of alcohol intake is likely to produce withdrawal symptoms, including severe anxiety, tremors, hallucinations, and convulsions. Long-term consumption of large quantities of alcohol and drugs, particularly when combined with poor nutrition, can also lead to permanent damage to vital organs such as the brain and liver. Alcohol-and-Drug-Free Campus Workplace Policy: Ferrum College is committed to providing student, faculty, staff, and visitors a safe campus and workplace. The college recognized the health risks associated with controlled substance use and alcohol misuse and is committed to supporting students and employees who seek treatment for these conditions. The college also recognizes that controlled substance use and alcohol misuse diminish workplace and campus safety and undermine the college’s ability to fulfill its mission of providing quality education for all students in an atmosphere that promotes intellectual pursuit, spiritual growth, and social and personal responsibility. Compliance with this policy is considered a condition of employment and attendance at Ferrum College and monitored by the Human Resource Department.
