"Where recreation is education!"

This past week I spent time doing things I never thought I would be doing in this job. I proposed a budget for my first time, made a frequently asked question sheet for people who could walk into the office at anytime and ask about the recreational sports program on the downtown campus. This semester will be the first time we have online registration so I am working out all the bugs that will come along with this feat. The programs should be starting tomorrow yet no one has signed up. I feel like we have great advertising and the students know of this program but there is not much interest like that of Tempe’s campus. I have decided that we could take the teams that are on waiting lists at Tempe to the downtown campus because as the motto goes “One University in Many Places.” So as I move forward from my 2nd week on the job I have come away with a sense that you can’t take things to personally. I will evaluate the downtown campus and look to find ways to better its sports program and make this a premier urban campus.
