I officially began my mentorship this day and shadowed Lonny Allen throughout the day. I learned quickly that as an athletic director there is a lot involved and many roles and responsibilities required to ensure all aspects of athletics are running smoothly in the department. We had a meeting with the softball and track and field coaches, a representative from maintenance, and a representative from events to determine what is required to be able to operate the concessions stand in the Heminger Building during various events to help generate funds. Throughout the day I also met many of the coaches, other department personnel, and other faculty and staff members on campus. The athletic director is responsible for voting on schedules for different teams. The conference that TU is a member of conducted a conference call with all the athletic directors in the conference to vote on schedules for the next two men's soccer seasons. This occurs regularly for each sport TU participates in. A meeting with all the coaches and members of the department was held with campus security to go over safety and the Clery Act. I was given the responsibility of working with the coaches and campus security to help with Clery Trip Reporting. The university is working on an Esports program and we met with the committee working on that project.
