JC, assuming Jr. College, use the NCAA FPSL here in NE. Sliding through or pass the bag and making contact is legal provided that the foot isn't at knee height or above. A slide that is off to the side of the bag is illegal if there is contact and/or alters the play.

I believe that this is a fair rule and does eliminate injuries. Let the pros, who get paid well, deal with protecting themselves. In college and below, the FPSR is needed to protect the infielder from unnecessary injuries.
