Finishing The Academic Year Strong & Taking Care Of Yourself: Advice, Ideas & Insights For Our SID Community In this pre-recorded webinar, these four members of the CoSIDA Advocacy Committee shared some thoughts and strategies to help our members navigate through the final weeks of the spring semester – and beyond. It’s been a very difficult and challenging stretch for everyone working in college athletics, particularly for SIDs. The topics covered: • focusing only on the essentials • hints to help you manage your time on task • document your successes and special projects undertaken during the pandemic • the importance on communications, making, and enforcing deadlines with staff members and coaches • allowing yourself to plan times to recharge – and how to advocate for these recharges • ideas for down time and “staycations” • how to control what you can control when it comes to off-time work emails, texts and calls Panelists Akilah Laster – Sun Belt Conference, Assistant Commissioner, Communications Shane Herrmann – North Alabama, Associate Sports Information Director Mike Williams – Illinois State, Assistant Athletics Director/Communications Moderator Danny Barnts – Point Loma Nazarene University, Assistant Athletic Director for Communications
