"Indiana Rule" Another Example of IU Athletics' Vision, Leadership

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Athletic Director Fred Glass has sent a clear message – when it comes to sexual assault, Indiana University has zero tolerance.

Specifically, the Hoosiers will not accept any incoming student-athlete, whether it's a transfer or a recruit from the high school, junior college or prep school ranks, or internationally, who has committed sexual assault.

The Hoosiers, unlike every other Big Ten school, backs it up with a specific policy.

Called Indiana University Athletics Policy Disqualifying Prospective Student-Athletes With Records of Sexual Violence, it keeps the university proactive in addressing such situations.
