    jOHN G. BAYNES John G. Baynes has been elected to the Hall of Fame for his accomplish­ ments in the field of athletic training. Baynes. a native of Pennsylvania and Peace Corps veteran ofEl Salva­ dor, was for the last three decades the University's head athletic trainer. serving 22 women's and men's varsity sports and a comprehensive Jack Baynes intramurals program. He and his wife. the former Connie Trask, recently moved to Ariwna, where Baynes will provide athletic training services to the Santa Rita secondary school system. Since arriving at Northeastern as an assistant trainer in 1971. Baynes has become synonymous with Husky athletics, as well as athletic training as a discipline. After just one full season at Northeastern, he was promoted to bead the A.T. staff by Dr. George Lane. Since then he would serve four Lane Health Center directors and three athletic directors. In very short time. Baynes asserted himself as a primary cog in the development of varsity athletics at NU. and as a leader in the National Athletic Trainers Association (NAT A). After accepting an invitation from the National Health and Physical Education Association in 1975 to lecture on the subject throughout Mexico, he was selected to the training staff for the Pan American Games that summer. In 1980, he served on the staff of the Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. His meteoric rise through the NAT A rank-and-t1le continued as both a new decade and a severe health threat approached. Seemingly minor problems with his neck surfaced in 1983, and, as symptoms lingered into 1985, he underwent further examinations at Mass.

We look forward to a successful year of Athletics at Northeastern University and we are proud to have you as one of our student-athletes. The Department of Athletics has three primary goals for the athletics program and all student-athletes: Classroom Success; Community Involvement; and, Competitive Excellence. During your time here we hope you will keep these goals in mind and help the Huskies achieve success in all three areas. A significant part of this handbook is dedicated to academic enhancement and compliance. Every student-athlete must strictly adhere to each area. Remember that failure to follow NCAA rules or University policy may cause you to lose the privilege of being a student-athlete and possibly your athletic scholarship. All information contained in the handbook is important and should serve as a guide concerning institutional athletic matters. The items addressed are a compilation of some basic information. There are additional rules and regulations that will be shared at mandatory compliance meetings, which will be held throughout the academic year. Please keep in mind that all of us associated with Northeastern Athletics are representatives of our University. Your actions both on and off the field reflect not only on yourself, but your teammates and Northeastern University as well.
