Medical Consent Form

2006 National Science Olympiad Tournament
INDIANA UNIVERSITY
May 17-20, 2006

New friends and memories to last a lifetime are just part of what your child will experience on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University.

Whether or not this is your son's or daughter's first time away from home, we know you still worry. What happens if he or she gets sick or injured and you can't be reached right away?

At Indiana University, we share your concern. That's why we ask that you fill out this form and return it as soon as possible to your School's Science Olympiad Coach, so he or she can send in all student forms together. If he or she gets sick or injured, this form provides vital medical information. It does not mean that every effort won't be made to contact you first, but it does mean that your child can still be treated quickly even if you can not be reached.

Remember ... this form will probably never be used. Safety is our number one priority at IU, especially where children are concerned. But peace of mind is worth the few minutes it takes to complete this form.
