Southern Illinois University is committed to creating a safe, comfortable and enjoyable gameday experience for all fans. Saluki Nation is widely known for its enthusiasm, sportsmanship and hospitality. As a ticket holder, you are responsible for how your actions and/or language may affect others. All Salukis are expected to create a first-class environment for fans, coaches, players and officials.
The following expectations have been established for all fans to follow. A fan's experience will not be disrupted by unruly fans' threatening or inconsiderate behavior. Profane or abusive language is not allowed. Fans who appear intoxicated will be denied access to Saluki events. For the safety of all coaches and players, access to the field or playing area is not permissible without proper credentials. Anyone caught throwing objects will be escorted from the facility. Southern Illinois University is proud to be smoke free. Smoking is prohibited inside or on University owned property. All fans must sit in the seat that they have purchased. Saluki Nation cheers for the home team, not against the visiting team. Salukis are expected to uphold these expectations when visiting any other venue.
During all Saluki events, the following items are prohibited: alcohol and tobacco, containers of any kind, radios, noisemakers, video and flash cameras, banners and flags, and weapons of any kind.
Should you witness any of this behavior or feel threatened in any way, please notify the nearest member of the SIU Event Services team or uniformed police officer.
