COMPUTERSAll resident hall rooms have fiber connection to the campus network and to the Internet. Additionally, WiFi connectivity is available in a majority of the residence hall footprint. If you plan to use your own computer, make sure you have a network port on your computer. Most computers now have built-in
network ports. The College’s Information Technology staff provides assistance with network connections. Students without computers have access through the computer labs in Vennum-Binkley Science Hall,
Burgess Hall, Melick Library, Learning Center, and a 24-hour lab in Ben Major Center. These computer labs are open to all Eureka College students.
The Information Technology Department can only provide connectivity to the campus network and the Internet. If the issue is with a student’s computer (a bad hard drive, viruses/spyware, applications, programs
on their computer or some other hardware problem) they will need to resolve that issue first. Only then can the Information Technology Department assist with any connectivity issues.
Students are encouraged to bring their own desktop or laptop, and maintain it in proper working order.
CAMPUS MAILEvery freshman and residential student is given a campus mailbox which is located in the Donald B. Cerf
Center. Ivy Residence Hall has its own mail receptacle. It is important to check your mail on a daily basis as faculty, staff and students utilize the campus mailboxes for distribution of notices, letters, and
announcements. Your campus box number must be included on incoming mail in order to ensure proper delivery. Incoming mail should be addressed as follows:
Student’s NameEureka College # (Campus Box Number)
300 E. College AvenueEureka, IL 61530-1500
A transfer commuter student may request a campus mailbox through the Mailroom Office. Commuter campus mailboxes will be issued on a first come basis depending on availability.
E-MAILAdditionally, every student is provided an email address that is activated once the student is enrolled.
It is also important to check your email account daily as instructors and offices regularly communicate by email with important announcements.
PARKINGStudents may bring an automobile to campus. All automobiles must be registered
with the Office of Student Programs & Services. The parking pass (obtained when the vehicle is registered) must be displayed at all times.

HEALTH INFORMATIONAll students must submit a completed health questionnaire to the Office of Student Programs and Services prior
to enrollment. Illinois State law requires that all students submit a record of current required immunizations.
Students participating in intercollegiate athletics must complete the enclosed Athletic Information Sheet and Athletic Pre-participation Physical Evaluation, which includes proof of a physical examination
performed by a licensed physician.
Eureka College contracts with Eureka Community Hospital for health clinic services. All students, whether residential or commuting, may use the clinic at Eureka Community Hospital, as long as x-rays and extensive lab work (beyond CBC, throat culture and urinalysis) are not needed. There will be a co-pay fee charged to the student’s account through the Business Office for each visit to the clinic. The co-pay fee for the 2012-2013 school year will be $10. The clinic’s hours of service are 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily throughout the
academic school year. Services beyond basic evaluation and treatment and services outside of clinic hours are charged to the student’s health insurance. Starter medicine packets and sport physicals are charged through
the student’s college account. Students must show their college ID every time they visit the clinic.
TUITION MANAGEMENTAs a service, a student’s expenses may be spread over ten (10), nine (9), or eight (8) monthly payments, with-out interest. The only cost is a $65 enrollment fee. This option will enable you to conserve savings and more
easily budget costs. It is offered in cooperation with TUITION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (TMS), a nationwide leader in helping families afford education. Information on this program
may be obtained by calling the Admissions Office, 1-888-4EUREKA, the Business Office at 1-800-548-9144, or by calling TMS direct, at 1-800-356-8329.

ACCIDENT AND SICKNESS INSURANCE REQUIREMENT
Eureka College participates in a program of Accident and Sickness Insurance designed especially for students.The annual charge for the 2011-2012 school year was set at $520 (12-month) and $340 (second semester only). The 2012-2013 cost for this coverage will be determined after June 1st, 2012. All full-time students
attending the College are required to participate in this program unless an insurance waiver card as described below is furnished. Students may also secure family coverage. Information regarding family coverage is
available through the Eureka College Business Office.
An insurance waiver card requesting insurance verification will be sent with the student’s statement of student account in July. The waiver must be filled out, signed, and returned each year at the beginning of the fall
semester. Failure to return the waiver card with proof of insurance coverage will result in the purchase of the college sponsored health and accident insurance plan. The premium will be charged to the student’s account.
A medical expense benefit schedule for the college sponsored insurance plan is also sent with each student’s statement in July. For additional information, students may contact the Business Office at
(309) 467-6309 or 1-800-548-9144.
ATHLETIC INSURANCE REQUIREMENTNCAA requires students participating in intercollegiate athletics to purchase additional
insurance coverage through the College. The 2012-2013 fees are estimated to be as follows:
Football = $275.00Basketball/Soccer = $165.00All other sports = $140.00
(Athletic Insurance fees are tentative and subject to change.)
If a student is involved in more than one athletic program, the student does not have to pay a fee for each.The highest applicable fee must be paid. Further information is available by calling the Business Office at
(309) 467-6309 or 1-800-548-9144.

In order to assist in paying for medical bills due to injury, Eureka College offers a SECONDARY insurance through FirstAgency of Kalamazoo, MI. An extra premium is paid by the athlete, which varies by sport, before being eligible for par-ticipation. Eureka College is not legally liable for injuries, and will not pay for medical bills due to injury or illness.
I, as an athlete, realize participation in athletics involves the potential for injury, which is inherent in all sports. I ac-knowledge that even with the best coaching, use of the most advanced protective equipment, and strict observance of the rules, injuries are still a possibility.

Dear Parents of Eureka College Intercollegiate Athletes,
We are extremely pleased to have your son/daughter as a student athlete at Eureka College and hope that he/she will achieve academic, social, and athletic success.
Each student athlete is required to have a physical examination completed within 6 months of first practice and prior to any participation in any intercollegiate sport. The final decision on physical qualifications or rea-sons for rejection is the responsibility of the team physician. The team physician and certified athletic trainers will determine when an athlete may return to competition after an injury.
Injuries – Medical Bills – Insurance Coverage – Claim Procedure
Accidents do occur and we attempt to provide our athletes with the very best possible care. Medical bills may be incurred when the athlete is treated for bodily injury due to an accident, whether it occurs locally or during a road trip, by a medical vendor of his/her choice.
The NCAA states there are no waivers for college athletic insurance coverage.
One Firm Statement: The NCAA discourages any college or university from providing coverage or paying the bills incurred for expenses related to illnesses or conditions which are not sustained as the direct result of an accident in our intercollegiate sports program (this includes pre-existing conditions and non-athletic injuries).
Insurance Coverage: The athletic accident insurance at Eureka College provides coverage for your son/daughter for accidents while participating in the play or official team practice of intercollegiate sports, including sponsored and authorized team travel. This insurance has a $250 deductible.
Claim Procedure: All medical bills for your son/daughter incurred as a result of an accident in the intercollegiate sports program will be sent directly to your son/daughter or to your home address, unless the college has instructed the medical vendors otherwise. In some cases, the athletic department may get a copy of the bill, but in no case will the athletic department be the primary location for the incurred bill to be sent.
1. Submit the bills incurred to your family insurance plan first.
They will take one of the following two actions:

2. If there remains a balance after your family insurance plan has contributed towards the claim, send the claim sheet from your insurance company and a copy of the itemized bills incurred to Eureka College’s Assistant Athletic Trainer, Sara Eggleston.
If you receive a letter of denial from your family insurance plan administrator, please send a copy of the letter of denial along with a copy of the bills incurred to Eureka College’s Assistant Athletic Trainer. If no coverage is available, a letter from your employer with verification will be necessary.
3. If the bills incurred are not acted upon by the family insurance plan (i.e. not large enough), the claim will be sent from the athletic department to our insurance carrier office which is in Kalamazoo, Michigan for processing. If they need any additional information, please cooperate with them and they will process the claim in the least possible amount of time. It is in your best interest to have the claim settled promptly since all the bills incurred are in your name.
Please note:
If the primary family coverage is through an HMO or PPO, you must follow the proper procedures required by your plan in order for the college’s insurance to satisfactorily complete its portion of the claim. This is especially important if your plan requires pre-authorization to have your son/daughter treated if they are out of your plan’s service area. It is recommended that you become informed of local providers in Eureka, IL and the surrounding area whom are in network should your son/daughter require further evaluation and care.
Parents should retain this letter for future reference. Your cooperation in this important area will help make this program successful in minimizing delays and accomplishing the purpose for which it is intended.

The permit MUST be visible when you are on campus and can be switched to another car temporar-ily when/if needed. However, if you need to have another car on campus for more than a week at a time, you need to register your 2nd car with the SPS Office. Parking permit fees are included as part of your campus access fee.
RESIDENTIAL STUDENTS: If you are a residential student, you have the ability to park in any “Residential Student Lot” or “All Campus Lot”. (See diagram below.) Driving to class and/or parking in a “Commuter/Faculty/Staff Lot” could result in you being ticketed.
COMMUTER STUDENTS: If you are a commuter student, you have the ability to park in any “Commuter/Faculty/Staff Lot” or “All Campus Lot”. (See diagram below.) Parking in a “Residential Student Lot” could result in you being ticketed.
At no time should students give or sell their permit to another person or student to use. The permit must be used by the student who originally purchased the permit. If you have any questions, please stop by the SPS Office or call (309) 467-6420. More parking information can also be obtained from the Campus Traffic Rules and Regulations portion of the Student Handbook.
