Responsibilities (projects completed, tasks assigned, etc.):
I sought out this practicum because of personal interest, and could not have been happier.  Some of the tasks and projects I have done include:
- helping coordinate Athletic Honors Night and Falcon Networking Night
- creation of the monthly Falcon Flier newsletter
- conducting weekly Mentor Meetings with academically at-risk student athletes
- assisting with Percent Degree Completion paperwork
- conducting meetings with prospective athletes regarding SAS services
- co-advising Student-Athlete Advisory Committee
...and many others.  This practicum has been a great opportunity to branch out and experience intercollegiate athletics as a functional area.  Kerry is very flexible and open to ideas for programming and new initiatives.
