Using unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) during games is strictly prohibited.

The Carleton Ravens’ practice schedules and locations vary each week. Media looking to attend practice should contact Ravens Sports Information.
Media are encouraged to contact Jeremy Whalen to ensure that interview requests are met.
Interview Policies – All interviews with Athletics staff, coaches and student-athletes are arranged through the Sports Information Officer. Media are asked to contact the Sports Information Officer at least 24 hours in advance to arrange a time for an interview that is convenient for you. Interviews are normally scheduled before or after practice sessions so as not to interfere with the student’s time away from athletics. The location is Carleton University Athletic facility premises. For post-game interviews, there is a five to ten-minute “cooling off” period for student-athletes before they interact with the media. The rules vary from sport to sport to ensure equal access to media members.
Media are encouraged to contact Jeremy Whalen to ensure that photography requests are met.
Personal photography is accepted with basic point and shoot cameras.
