Sorry if this is a dumb question but I looked online and I could only find a range between August 16 and 19. Is it informally known which day it will release on to view quartile scores?
I have my CASPer tomorrow and am wondering whether or not to reschedule.
I am aiming for fourth quartile and I think my response below is representative of my average answer. I would be grateful for any feedback or advice!
You are organizing a group trip with the university Chess club. You are one of the more senior club execs and are in charge of the group. One night, one of the junior players decided to sneak alcohol into the hotel room. You caught him.
Question 1: Are you going to kick the player off the team?
Answer: I would first have a non judgmental conversation with the player and gather information on what is happening. Is the item really alcohol and were they aware? If so, I would acknowledge that I understand wanting to have fun while on a trip, however, laws and rules still need to be followed. I would suggest the student gets rid of the alcohol and reports the issue to an authority figure like a coach who I will work with to come up with a decision. If they decide not to report themselves, I would report it myself and let them know why i did so. After this, I would evaluate intentions and speak to the player at greater depth before making a final decision.
Question 2: How can you prevent such an incident from happening again?
Answer: I would like to foster a culture in which players understand the rules and why they are in place. When players are entering the team, we can have a short class explaining the rules and why it is important to follow them. I would also let everyone know that I am always open to chat about any concerns without fear of retaliation. As a senior member, I would also try to lead by example and never do anything against the rules in order to promote this culture
