Part 1: Center City Slam Event at Drexel University Facilities

Drexel University and its trustees, officers, employees, volunteers, students, and participating organizations, agents and assigns are collectively referred to herein as “Drexel”. 

I understand that this Program is completely voluntary, and I freely choose to participate in this Program. I understand that Program activities will include, but are not limited to,

·       INDOOR ROWING ACTIVITIES AND OTHER ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES.

I understand that participation in the Program exposes me to risks, including, but not limited to,

·       temporary or permanent muscle soreness, tendinitis, sprains, strains, cuts, abrasions, bruises, ligament and/or cartilage damage, head, neck or spinal injuries, loss of arms and/or legs, eye damage, gastrointestinal issues, disfigurement or even death.

CONSENT TO PARTICIPATE 

I recognize that there are both foreseeable and unforeseeable risks of injury or death that may occur as a result of my participation in the Program that cannot be specifically listed. I acknowledge that I am responsible for making sure that my health is adequate to participate in the activities involved in the Program.  

I agree that participating in any activity is an acceptance of some risk of injury. I agree that my safety is primarily dependent upon my taking proper care of myself. I understand that it is my responsibility to know what I will need for the Program and to provide what I will need. I agree that I must have my own health insurance and that I am responsible for the cost of any medical treatment required during the Program. I agree to fully comply with applicable laws, policies, rules, regulations, Drexel’s Student Code of Conduct, and any supervisor’s instructions or posted warnings regarding participation in this Program. I agree to stop and seek assistance if I do not believe I can safely participate or continue in any activity. I agree to wear or use proper protection or gear as dictated by the activity. I will not wear or use or do any thing that would pose a  hazard to myself or others, including using or ingesting any substance which could pose a hazard to me or others. I agree that if I do not act in accordance with this agreement I may not be permitted to continue to participate in the Program.  

I understand that Drexel is not an agent of, and has no responsibility for, any third party including without limitation any entity which may provide  any services including food, lodging, travel, or any equipment associated with the Program.  

Despite precautions, accidents and injuries can occur. I understand that travel and other activities connected with the Program may be potentially dangerous and that I may be injured and/or lose or damage personal property, or suffer financial loss, as a result of participation in the Program.  Therefore, for myself, I ASSUME ALL RISKS RELATED TO THE ACTIVITIES, including, but not limited to: 

·       Death, injury or illness from accidents of any nature whatsoever, including but not limited to bodily injury of any nature whether severe  or not which may occur as a result of or arising from: participating in an activity or contact with persons or physical  surroundings, including animals, insects or plants; travel by air, car, bus, subway or any other means; illness including food poisoning arising from the provision of food or beverage by restaurants or other service providers. 

·       Loss or injury as a result of a crime or criminal act, terrorism, war, civil unrest, riot, detention by a foreign government, arrest or other act of any government or authority including, without limitation, any loss resulting from the cancellation or delay of the Program.

·       Exposure to chemicals, hazardous materials or other potentially harmful substances or animals in research facilities or laboratories.

·       Exposure to and illness from infectious diseases including, but not limited to, COVID-19, that is known to mainly spread from person-to-person through respiratory droplets when people cough, sneeze, or talk, and for which physical exertion and heavy breathing may lead to respiratory droplets being propelled longer distances. I understand the risks of COVID-19.  

·       Theft or loss of my personal property during the Program. 

·       Loss or injury as a result of natural disasters or other disturbances.  

·       For residential programs only: Meningococcal disease is a rare, but potentially fatal, bacterial infection, and research has shown that persons residing in dormitories appear to be at higher risk for the disease. A meningococcal vaccine is available that provides protection against the most common strains of the disease. I understand the risks of meningococcal disease as well as the benefits of immunization. I also understand that there may be participants in the Program that have not been immunized. 

I further acknowledge that the above list is not inclusive of all possible risks associated with the Program and that I am aware of the risks involved whether described or not. I further understand that participating in the Program is an acceptance of risk of injury, death, or financial loss. 

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT- COVID-19 

I acknowledge that I may be required to wear certain Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”), including face masks, pursuant to Drexel’s policies, rules, and regulations. I understand that the use of PPE does not remove all risks of illness. I alone must determine the sufficiency of any PPE or other precautions that I decide to take to minimize the risks of participating in the Program. I expressly acknowledge that my choice of PPE is at my discretion and that Drexel has no liability for my choice of PPE or for PPE provided by Drexel, if any. I further understand that Drexel cannot control or eliminate all risks associated with COVID-19, and it is my voluntary choice to participate in the Program.  

MEDICAL TREATMENT AUTHORIZATION 

I authorize and give my consent to Drexel to act on my behalf, or on behalf of my child (who is under 18), in any medical emergency, including, if necessary, emergency medical treatment and admission to an accredited hospital or emergency care center.

PHOTO RELEASE
