For the week of: November 17, 2003

Question:

True or False: It is permissible to create a portfolio of information (e.g., pictures) to show to prospects during the recruiting process in addition to the one permissible athletics recruiting publication (i.e., media guide or recruiting brochure).

Answer:

False. Per the recent interpretation it is NOT permissible for an institution to create a portfolio of information (e.g., pictures) to be shown to prospective student-athletes during the recruiting process unless the portfolio is considered the institution's one permissible athletics recruiting publication (i.e., media guide or recruiting brochure).
