From a Public Relations standpoint we hopefully will get the view of having good, clean, healthy student athletes with not and's ifs or but's. Parents will have the confidence that their children are in a good place were they will learn what is wrong and what is right on their own. With drug testing, student athletes will have to decide weather they want to participate in sports and be drug free or choose the other route that is less traveled. If we have decided that the risk of using drugs is great enough so that we should test the students at Concordia for their own good, then we have to decide what we are going to test for. After this we will have to decide who we are going to test.
Athletes are the first people that get looked to when it comes to drug testing.
The NCAA has a drug testing procedure that is set up by the private organization. For Concordia students, they will not have to come into contact with the testing unless their team makes it to a NCAA National Tournament, even though they could test at any time. But Concordia could test all their students for a PR reason to sell a drug-free campus to parents and concerned students. In reality the most common drugs are tobacco and alcohol, possibly even caffeine. They see the almost universal acceptance of alcohol and tobacco.
