Team Name and Team Shirts Must be Appropriate!! 

Title Nine rule for all Colleges!!  This is very important!  Due to Title Nine regulations the content of the shirts must be appropriate.  "Carroll College is committed to providing an environment that is free from harassment and discrimination based on race, color, or national origin, or because of age, physical or mental disability, marital status, gender identity, sexual orientation, creed, religion or sex. In addition, team names which reflect the use or abuse of alcohol or other drugs will not be allowed."

Rules to follow when creating a team name for Softball Weekend:   After consideration is given to all relevant possible meanings of the name - would a reasonable person find the intent of the name acceptable?   "Would a Reasonable Person find it offensive? Can the name of your team be considered as harassment against someone else?   Reasonable Person: "A phrase frequently used in tort and Criminal Law to denote a hypothetical person in society who exercises average care, skill, and judgment in conduct and who serves as a comparative standard for determining liability." “It’s On Us” to make sure we all take care of, and respect one another!
