American University Department of Athletics and Recreation Verification of Receipt Student-Athlete Handbook 2019 – 2020 Dear Eagle Student-Athletes, Welcome back for the 2019 -2020 academic year. It’s a special honor for me to serve as your Director of Athletics and Recreation. My job is to create and nurture an environment where each one of you can reach your full potential. As you know, American University is a special place and affords you opportunities that can only be found at a select few institutions. Your part of the bargain is to always conduct yourself with the character and integrity expected of an American Eagle student-athlete. Remember, your behavior is not only a reflection on yourself, but your family, your team and our institution as well. It’s a privilege to be able to put on the American University uniform each and every day--please, never forget that, and hold each other accountable. Last year we experienced great success both in and out of the classroom. Through hard work and dedication, you earned numerous Patriot League honors, and all the while maintained over a 3.4 GPA! This can only happen if you’re focused on both sides of the student-athlete equation and when our upperclassmen serve as role models and mentors to our underclassmen. I thank you for that. The enclosed manual is provided to you as a comprehensive source outlining your responsibilities as an American University student-athlete. It is the responsibility of every student-athlete to read this manual thoroughly and be familiar with its contents. However, should you ever have questions, or issues arise please feel free to contact your coaches, my staff or me directly. We are all part of the Eagle team, and your success on the field, in the classroom and in the community is our primary goal. Welcome back. If you see me walking around campus, please stop me and say hello....I look forward to talking with each of you! GO EAGLES!

MATHES For the past 50 years, WAMU 88.5 has endeavored to be an integral part of the Washington community. As we look back on the past fiscal year in this report, I cannot help but reflect on the changes the last five decades have brought to both electronic media and our Washington home. We’ve grown from a local Washington radio station to a media powerhouse with international reach. We’ve also had the honor to serve the savviest, most loyal public radio audience imaginable. It is you, our audience, who has been the one constant in an ever-changing landscape. You’ve been there for us, through format changes, the birth of the Internet, the emergence of unprecedented media choice, and countless membership drives that have helped to fund the station’s coverage and programs. I directly attribute the successes documented in the pages to follow to our audience and our loyal community support. WAMU 88.5 continues to rank among the top five stations in both our home market of Washington, D.C., and nationally among all public radio stations in all measurement categories. We’ve continued to add staff to meet the demands of our audience growth and expectations, focusing our efforts this year in the areas of news, digital media, and development.

  • We Will Meet in the Mary Graydon Center, Room 245, Which Is in the Middle of the Campus, the Third Building on Your Left If You Enter at the Glover Gate
    We will meet in the Mary Graydon Center, room 245, which is in the middle of the campus, the third building on your left if you enter at the Glover Gate. Campus Map: https://www.american.edu/aumaps/upload/Main_Tenley_Vicinity.pdf Ample Free Parking is available after 5 pm at two parking lots an easy walk from the Mary Graydon Center. The easiest lot to find is the garage under the Katzen Arts Center, off of Massachusetts Ave, ½ block west of Ward Circle. The other parking garage is underneath the School of International Service on Nebraska Avenue, just where New Mexico comes into Nebraska Avenue. There is other parking on campus but it requires a permit. Look for the red “P” on the Campus Parking Map: https://www.american.edu/aumaps/upload/Parking_Map.pdf Coming by Metro: there are complimentary shuttle buses that run from the Tenley Town Red Line Metro to the AU Campus. They run every 10 minutes, or even more often, and take from 10 to 20 minutes to get to the main campus. The fastest bus to get to campus is the “Red Express” which you can catch 1 block from the Metro at Albemarle and Fort Drive NW. Exit the Tenley Town Metro station on the East side of Wisconsin (that’s the side with all the bus stops.) At the top of the escalator, keep walking straight down Albemarle Street, cross 40th street and look to your left as you cross Fort Drive. You will see a marker identifying it as the Red Line Express AU shuttle stop.
