Blair/Taylor,
I am going to the office this weekend to find the 1042 S forms and will put them on your desk to distribute to international students next week. The law school is not holding tax filer sessions this year. There is an online service for non-resident tax filers (similar to turbotax). The website is below. This is what I think we should recommend to our SA and can be sent with the email you send out. Also please remind them that the first step is to secure a Tax ID number (if they don’t already have one). They can get with Yolanda Clark to get one. Whoever can handle sending emails and distribution of form next week. Thanks appreciate it! https://www.sprintax.com/

Tuesday, March 9, 2021 6:00pm- Female students 7:30pm- Male students
We ask that at least one staff member from each sport attend the presentation to assist with team management and marking attendance for your team so that we stay socially distanced and limit interaction of check-in process.

Dear Athletics Diversity and Inclusion Designee:
The NCAA office of inclusion is pleased to release to the membership the first educational resource dedicated to the Athletics Diversity and Inclusion Designation. Developed in partnership with the Minority Opportunities and Interests Committee, this resource is designed to help maximize the impact of and optimize the ADID.
To view the resource, click here.
Visit the office of inclusion webpage for more resources on the ADID as they become available as well as for more information on how to register for the 2021 NCAA Inclusion Forum , which will feature special programming exclusively for ADIDs late afternoon of Thursday, June 2. Registration is now open.
In addition to the ADID resource, the NCAA Student-Athlete Activism and Racial Justice Engagement Study is now available on NCAA.org, including the survey results and the executive summary . The study, which generated nearly 25,000 student-athlete responses, examined student-athlete perceptions and experiences in terms of civic engagement, student- athlete activism and racial justice engagement during fall 2020. Survey questions were embedded within the NCAA Student-Athlete Well-Being Survey (Fall 2020). The survey instrument was designed by NCAA Research in collaboration with the NCAA Sport Science Institute and the NCAA Division I, II and III Student-Athlete Advisory Committees.

Good morning Miriam,
In light of the articles/reports that came out last week, our team is meeting this morning. I would like to get on another call this week to talk further as we're planning for the April sessions. Please let me know when is a good time for you.
Thank you,

A flat rate of $10k (travel fees not included) per semester would work for us. This would allow us to hold a number of in-person and/or virtual sessions each semester without having to adjust fees as COVID restrictions are lifted, etc.
We have received payment for the first football session ($1,500) so the five April in-person sessions would be $8,500 plus travel fees.
Does that work for you all?
On Tue, Mar 2, 2021 at 6:00 PM Miriam F Segar
I understand that we negotiated pricing for zoom meetings so the in-person will necessitate a change. Below are the sessions I would like to cover during his visit which would occur over a 2 day period. I want to come up with a rate that we can set and use as a guide as we move forward which is based on a program fee as opposed to a per session rate. Can you send me some feedback on that concept?
Coaching staff- 1 hour Female student-athletes- 1 hour Male student-athletes (not football)- 1 hour
Football coaching staff- 45 min Football student-athletes- 1 hour

We would like for his trip to include April 7 in the evening as the presentation to football team. With classes we can not conduct a morning seminar. Can you please build an option that has him in Baton Rouge the evening of April 7?

From: Danielle Erwin
Good morning Miriam,
I was able to connect with Tony and get an idea on travel and what would work for his calendar. Please see below:
Option 1 Tony can travel to you all on April 4th Train on April 5 (with the exception of 2pm-4pmEST, is there somewhere on campus he could set up for another virtual training that is previously scheduled?) Train on April 6 Travel home on April 7
Option 2 Travel on April 4th Train on April 5 (with the exception of 2pm-4pmEST, is there somewhere on campus he could set up for another virtual training that is previously scheduled?) Train on April 6 Train on the morning of April 7 Travel home the afternoon of April 7
While he's on campus, Tony would love the opportunity to meet with yourself, Eddie Kennison and the head football coach if that can be arranged.
As far as travel requests, we would ask that Tony is booked first class and in a window seat so as to minimize contact with other passengers. We would also need to discuss an amendment to the existing contract as the agreed upon fee structure is for virtual trainings only.
On Fri, Feb 26, 2021 at 2:08 PM Miriam F Segar
We would like to cancel Monday, March 1 Zoom presentation and instead schedule Tony to travel to Baton Rouge in April and present in-person to our student-athletes and staff. The dates we would like him to present to football is the evening of April 7, 2021. I am hopeful we can schedule our other seminars during his visit as well and can work to finalize those dates. Thinking travel to BR on April 5 arriving in evening and have seminars April 6-7 and depart morning of April 8.
I will continue to look at calendar and get some suggested meeting times next week.
Please let me know what you think.

Hi Miriam,
I’ve talked with Tony and our team and we’d like to get on a call prior to Monday’s session if that works for you.
We can be available today anytime before 12pmEST or this evening anytime between 4:30pm-6pmEST.
To give you some insight into conversation, as an organization we’re not traveling until at least after the first quarter. Additionally, because we have so many online trainings between on Monday, it would be challenging to get a trainer to be with you all in person.
In light of some of the challenges that came about in the first session, we’re thinking it might be better to change direction a bit and provide sessions for the coaching staff first. Tony will lay out some of his thinking around this when we’re able to connect on call.
Let me know what works for you.

Good Afternoon, Miriam.
Per Coach Fargas, we would like our incoming student-athletes to move in on June 10th, to begin workouts on June 14th. They will begin classes on July 6th. We are allowed 8-weeks of training, so we have designated June 14th – August 6th. Blair has confirmed that she can submit a waiver allowing them to be on campus early.
We are reaching out to you for housing purposes to confirm that they can move in on June 10th. Also if they come early, what does this mean for them financially?
Thanks for your assistance and advice to get things confirmed.

FYI – See below for some questions I posed to the NCAA (Liz) and her responses below.
Byron Hatch Assistant Commissioner Southeastern Conference
From: Suscha, Liz
Hi Byron – great to hear from you!
Would a campus site still be considered if their team is not in the NCAA Tournament? Can a team indicate/decline the possibility of hosting if their team is not participating? The regional sites will be predetermined this year – announced about 3 weeks prior to selections. Given that, we are asking schools/hosts to commit to hosting regardless of their team’s participation. However, we are finalizing our plan for super regional hosts. In all likelihood we will wait until the conclusion of regional play to assign super regional hosts but the hosts will be from among the 16 regional hosts; this is to ensure that we have certified and prepared testing centers which is not possible to do on a 3-4 day turn-around. Are there specific items you all/committee are looking for when determining who hosts? Different from typical years, we do need some prework on hotels and testing center space from schools submitting bids. Also, we are asking hosts to review the softball Return to Championships Guidelines to be sure that they can meet our health and safety standards for post-season competition. The softball committee will minimize the emphasis on getting to the revenue guarantee ($5K for regionals; $7500 for super regionals) given capacity limitations and other COVID-related facility complications. Are their restrictions on capacity for fans? Do you all envision allowing schools to have the same capacity they utilize during the regular season? At this point, we are limited to 25% capacity for spectators for NCAA championships. We are in the process right now of determining whether we can allow the percentage to increase. More to come and we are hopeful that we are in a position to increase the limit if it is consistent with local health department regulations.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.
Thanks! Liz

This information will be utilized to coordinate your tested travel party’s initial on-site arrival COVID-19 test. The On-site Team Health Officer designated on the form will receive follow-up communication regarding the testing schedule.
Practice Schedule Revision: The Division I Swimming and Diving Committee adjusted the practice schedule assignments for Wednesday and has reposted the Participant Manual here. The change is that the order of the practice groups will remain A&B followed by C&D on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. The previous schedule showed Groups C&D being in the first practice slot on Wednesday morning after being in the late slot on Tuesday night. In fairness for adequate recovery, the change has been made and the decision is final. In addition, we removed the notation that only those swimming in prelims could practice on Wednesday – that was a typo. All participants can practice in their groups on Wednesday. Also, the Diving practice group assignments will be released after the last Zone Diving competition completes. Please note that the diving practice groups may not correspond with the swimming group assignments.
Revised Wednesday Practice Schedule: 6 to 8:15 a.m. Group A Training Pool 6 to 8:15 a.m. Group B Competition Pool 8:30 to 10:45 a.m. Group C Training Pool 8:30 to 10:45 a.m. Group D Competition Pool 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Group A Competition Pool 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Group B Training Pool 12:45 to 2:15 p.m. Group C Competition Pool 12:45 to 2:15 p.m. Group D Training Pool

See below... most important thing to note is that basketball and football do not have to be enrolled in summer classes to engage in some workout activities which is helpful but if you remember last summer academics recommended that most of them take classes due to academic need so I’m not sure it will really be a money saver for us but just wanted you to know that looks like that was passed today.

From: Matt Boyer
Below are the Key Takeaways from today’s March meeting of the Division I Council.
Of note: 1. Summer Access Enrollment Waiver: The Council approved a blanket waiver for the summer of 2021 which will allow all football and basketball student-athletes to participate in required summer practice activity without being enrolled in summer school. As a related aside, similar to last summer, we will review and consider corresponding adjustments to SEC summer enrollment requirements in the near future.
2. Out-of-Season Weekly CARA Limit Waiver: The Council approved a blanket waiver for all sports other than FB (who has already received similar relief) to increase the weekly limit on countable athletic activity during the out-of-season segment from 8 to 10 hours per week. The two additional hours of countable activity may only be spent on team meetings and film review (i.e. nonphysical activity). This waiver becomes effective on Monday, March 22.
3. Discussion regarding Temporary Dead Period: The Council discussed (no action) options for transitioning out of the current temporary dead period, and generally agreed that a return to some level of in-person recruiting activity on June 1 is anticipated. Work to refine the current options for transition (e.g. universal “quiet period” or full return to traditional recruiting calendars) will continue over the next month, with action expected by the Council in April (15-16).
4. Spring Sport Eligibility Extensions: The Council discussed, but delayed action, on a blanket waiver to provide an automatic eligibility extension to all initial enrollees (e.g. freshmen) in spring sports. Additional information, and a plan for resuming this specific conversation, will be provided to the Council later in the week.
5. Transfers: The Council received an update from the Transfer Working Group who noted that it continues to support the adoption of NCAA Division I Proposal No. 2020-11. If it is not practicable to proceed with a vote on the proposal in April, the working group will introduce/recommend a blanket waiver for undergraduate transfers for the 2021-22 academic year (grad transfers would still apply existing one- time opportunity legislation).
Hope that’s helpful as quick summary. If any questions, please let me know.

To: NCAA Division I Council (with a copy to the NCAA Division I Conference Commissioners, NCAA Division I Collegiate Commissioners Association Compliance Administrators, and select NCAA staff members).
Colleagues:
Below are the key takeaways from the March 17, 2021, NCAA Division I Council meeting. You may distribute these notes broadly and use as you update your colleagues on the outcomes of this Council meeting.
Information related to the discussion and possible action on season-of-competition and extension-of-eligibility waivers will be disseminated separately to Council later this week.
Thanks, Kevin
Note: This document provides key highlights from the meeting and does not include all agenda items.
1. Discussion Related to the Temporary Dead Period and the Transition to Recruiting Activities. The NCAA Division I Council discussed preliminary feedback from several committees that have engaged in discussions on how to return safely and effectively to recruiting activities at the conclusion of the temporary dead period. The Council generally agreed that a return to some level of in-person recruiting activity on June 1 is anticipated. The standing committees will continue to refine their recommendations in advance of the April Council meeting, during which the Council is expected to make final determinations regarding permissible recruiting activities that may occur after May 31.
2. Waiver of Summer School Enrollment Requirements for Basketball and Football Student-Athletes to Engage in Required Summer Athletic Activities. The Council approved a blanket waiver of NCAA Bylaw 17.1.7.2.1.5 (summer athletic activities) to permit football and basketball student-athletes to engage in required summer athletic activities during summer 2021 without being enrolled in summer school. A similar waiver was adopted for summer 2020. Its continuation may provide financial savings for institutions. Further, the waiver addresses the uncertainty surrounding summer school course availability due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Providing relief of the summer enrollment requirement now assists schools in making timely campus decisions regarding enrollment in summer coursework.
3. Waiver of Out-of-Season Activities Legislation – Sports Other than Football. The Council approved a waiver of Bylaw 17.1.7.2 (weekly hour limitations – outside of the playing season), in sports other than football, to permit institutions to increase, from eight to 10 hours, the weekly limit on out-of-season countable athletically related activities. The additional two hours of countable athletically related activities may be spent on team meetings and film review. The waiver will provide additional opportunities for student-athletes to engage in noncontact activities with their teams outside the playing season while the COVID-19 pandemic continues to restrict their normal activities on campus. The waiver is effective beginning Monday, March 22. The Council approved a similar waiver for football during its February 17 meeting.
4. Moratorium on Conference Sponsored, Council-Governance Proposals During the 2021-22 Legislative Cycle. The Council approved a limited moratorium on conference-sponsored, Council- governance proposals during the 2021-22 legislative cycle. Exceptions to the moratorium would include conference-sponsored proposals related to: (1) Significant membership priorities, including concepts intended to address the impact of COVID-19; and (2) Concepts that advance the NCAA Division I Board of Directors’ strategic areas of emphasis, including its modernization agenda. The limited moratorium on conference-sponsored legislative proposals will allow the membership to continue to focus on managing issues related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and other significant topics, including the use of a student-athlete’s name, image and likeness, and the review of transfer eligibility and transfer waivers. Conferences will continue to be permitted to submit other legislative concepts for consideration to Council standing committees. Conferences will also be permitted to submit amendments to Council-sponsored proposals.
5. Report from the March 1 NCAA Division I Working Group on Transfers Videoconference. The Council received an update from the March 1 meeting of the Working Group on Transfers. The working group noted that it continues to support the adoption of NCAA Division I Proposal No. 2020-11. If it is not practicable to proceed with a vote on the transfer proposal in April, the working group is prepared to recommend approval of a blanket waiver for undergraduate four-year transfer student- athletes for the 2021-22 academic year.
6. Complimentary Men’s Basketball Final Four Fan Cutouts for Institutions. As part of the NCAA Men’s Final Four fan cutout program, all Division I athletics directors were provided with a special code for four free cutouts that will be displayed in the stands during the NCAA Final Four games. These complimentary cutout codes are intended to provide each member institution with an opportunity to feature their Final Four Heroes (alumni, local community leaders, etc.). For additional information, please contact Gina Lehe at [email protected]. Proceeds from the men’s program will benefit both the United Way’s Central Indiana COVID-19 Recovery and Rebound effort and Hilinski’s Hope, a national nonprofit promoting awareness and education of student-athlete mental health and wellness.
Fan cutouts are also available for purchase at the NCAA Women’s Basketball Championship. Proceeds from the women’s program will benefit three nonprofits: the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, which awards research grants and funds programs to serve the underserved in the fight against all cancers affecting women; the Pat Summitt Foundation, which funds research for treatment and a cure for Alzheimer’s disease while supporting patients and caregivers; and the San Antonio Food Bank, which serves hundreds of thousands of individuals at risk for hunger across southwest Texas.

Good morning! We are processing expenses and noticed that there have been 2 recent expenses that have been submitted for reimbursement and wanted to communicate the need for prior approval prior to purchase of items. Please make sure that if there are team entertainment, community service initiatives, team snacks, etc… that you have the activity approved through sport supervisor, compliance and me if it involves use of Opportunity Fund.
The chocolate covered strawberries expense can be classified as a snack under the NCAA rule, but compliance was unaware at time of purchase and needs to preapprove in the future. That can be a budget expense.
The fabric from JoAnn Craft store for community service project is more tricky. We can’t pay with state funds and items that are given away are not generally approved by TAF. Most community service initiatives are voluntary personal donations from staff and student-athletes (ex. Food drive, Toy Drive, etc… ). Since this was not discussed prior to purchase and the team helped make the blankets to donate, on this occasion I will classify as a teambuilding exercise and authorize payment through Opportunity Fund.
Please remember to discuss with administrative staff moving forward so we can give guidance and preapproval. Thanks!

Teams: Teams shall receive a total of 25 individual credentials, with a maximum 15 for competing student-athletes. If a team does not have 15 student-athletes, the remaining credentials may be allocated to other necessary institutional staff members. The athletic trainer must be designated as one of the 25 members of the travel party. For videographer to film from the corral, see policy below. New in 2021: Teams may designate up to 18 athletes on the entry form. Only 15 athletes will be permitted for warm-ups and competition. If necessary, teams may change up to three additional athletes between rounds from the designated list. Teams must also submit an updated march-in list if any changes are made. If an athlete is replaced between rounds, her competitor number will be transferred to the new gymnast.
Temporary Passes: A maximum of three (3) temporary credentials may be issued (not good for admittance) to each institution for use by its administrators for access to pre- and post-competition responsibilities, press conferences and awards ceremonies. The administrator(s) will be permitted on the competition floor up until the floor is cleared to prepare for march-in. These three individuals shall be listed on the official entry/march-in form.
Team Physician: A medical credential may be issued to a team physician on request via the official entry/march-in form. Hosts shall seat team physicians in an area that is easily accessible to the competition floor in the event of an injury.
Sports Information Director: One (1) floor-access credential (non-transferable) for purposes of fulfilling media responsibilities and access to the competition floor and locker rooms as needed. This will be requested through and issued by the media coordinator.

Hi Ms. Mosley,
Below is the contact information for Jeremy Rose, the regional manager of LGC Hospitality, who is a Compass-approved temp staffing company that we have been using:
Jeremy Rose Cell: (606) 261-4486 [email protected]
A few items of note: LGC specializes in temp workers with a food service job focus. Almost all of their workers have backgrounds in food service. Their markup is 60% (which means that they’re definitely not cheap). Their pay rates for workers have already been negotiated and set with Compass Group (see attached). If one of their workers reports to work, you must pay them a minimum of 4 hours. You have the option to hire a worker from LGC once they have completed a minimum of 320 hours as a temp worker in your unit. Once an LGC worker works with us, if they do not fulfill the 320-hour minimum, we may not hire them without paying LGC $2500 (plus legal fees). Please make sure that you are added to the invoice distribution list for your invoices so that you can input the invoice totals to your labor every week. The quality of workers has seemed to be better than that of other temp staffing companies we’ve used in the past, but the reliability of certain workers is very “hit or miss.” Be prepared to deal with those issues. (We are currently addressing those issues on this side of campus with Jeremy.) Their staffing agreement terms are also attached.
I told Jeremy you may be reaching out soon. Please let him know how soon you are needing people, what positions, days / times, etc. He is willing to work with you on whatever your needs are.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Shaeeta,
I am adding Blair to this exchange. I am not aware of an NCAA waiver to have the SA arrive on June 10. Is there a reason you want them to report on June 10 specifically? Once we understand rationale we can discuss best way to move forward. We will need to set up physicals and so part of reporting will be to make sure the physical date. They will have to be admitted and cleared through Elig Center in order to report no matter what date we identify. Part of having the rooms ready is making sure the kids who currently occupy the space are moved out.

Per Coach Fargas, we would like our incoming student-athletes to move in on June 10th, to begin workouts on June 14th. They will begin classes on July 6th.

Coaches and Support:
I wanted to communicate an early phase transitioning plan for the Performance Nutrition Center (PNC). As of Thursday, March 11, 2021, we will be opening the seating area to a 40-person capacity for LUNCH only. We will continue to be vigilant in our expectations for following all COVID-19 protocols for any student-athlete who choses to either sit in the PNC to eat or is continuing to take their meals to go. Because our campus has not yet entered a vaccine distribution phase, we MUST remain very cautious as we begin to enter into this transitional period. Please read, follow, and discuss these expectations with all of your student-athletes eligible to eat in the PNC.
SEATING 40 seats are available in pre-set locations Seating is first-come, first-serve Student-athletes should keep they dining time limited to 15 minutes to allow for others to dine-in as well as limit direct contacts with other student-athletes and support staff in the PNC. Masks must remain on until seating has been secured and masks must be pulled up upon completion of the meal. Student-athlete must bus their own areas and bring trash to a labeled receptacle. PNC Staff will be responsible to sanitizing areas after each student-athlete leaves.
MEALS Student-athlete continue to enter through the PNC doors closest to the driveway and follow all existing protocols for food pick-up. Football student-athletes will enter and exit from the Football Operations Main lobby doors.

Jason,
Wanted to remind you about this email I sent last week requesting a logo for Live Respect Curriculum we are starting. I am adding John Daniel so he can take point in my absence but please copy me on logo design since we will use for a long time. Also adding Greg Stringfellow and Matthew LaBorde. We will pay for this with the Tiger Life Budget. Want to order teal wristbands to distribute to SA and Staff (maybe 1000 or 1500) and teal shoelaces for sports that want to participate (baseball, softball, track, etc.. ) who are competing in March.
Thanks to all of you for the help!

Jason,
We have started a new education initiative for our student-athletes and branding the initiative as Live Respect. We want to develop a branded logo for Live Respect that we can use with our educational workshops, on our website and with materials we plan to use. Can you please develop some mock-up for us to review and select from? We plan to use the Live Respect branding for our April Sexual Assault Awareness month initiatives (placing the logo on an armband, possible t-shirt, etc… ).
If you have questions or need more information about this initiative in order to design something, please let me know. Thanks!

To ALL SWA’s
We have been fielding many phone calls, emails, etc. about the status of your User ID’s and passwords. To help resolve the confusion associated with who we initially sent this information to, how the information was circulated throughout your department, we have decided to send ALL the User ID’s and Temporary Passwords to you (this information will be sent to you in a separate follow up email). If you have already received this information and feel your department is good, please disregard. We feel this will help make the process work much smoother.
As for the THO’s (Team Health Officer) designation. Many of you have submitted THO’s. Most have been for just for one sport. We would like to have a comprehensive list of THO’s for all sports. Please send a confirmation list of all your THO’s to [email protected] We will load these for you and send user ID’s and Passwords for ADMIN ACCESS to the KONGiQ Admin App for the THO’s. Once your THO logs into the database, they will be able to manage the information you provided (i.e. edit, change, etc).
We thank you for your patience with performing this new process.

I think there is plenty that Matt can move forward on. I sent him several student/season records with fake names to test with. I will just keep a list of issues that I would want you to address. The main one that I have right now is a possible change to how we identify primary sport so that we can tie it to a season not the student overall.

From: Blair Napolitano
Good morning!
As an international student at LSU, parts of your athletic scholarship are taxed in accordance with US Federal law. It is a requirement for you to complete a federal tax return and it is very likely you will have some of your tax withholdings refunded to you. Unfortunately this year the Law School will not be providing tax assistance, but there is a VITA (voluntary income tax assistance) site at LSU (see email attached with link to schedule appointment). Additionally, I am attaching text from an email you should have received from ISO regarding other opportunities for tax support.
I have brought your 1042-S to your coach/director of ops to distribute to you. If you notice in box 13e on this form starts with 999 you must get a US Tax Payer ID (ITIN). If this is the case, you will prepare your taxes first and then request an appointment with Ms. Yolanda Clark in order to obtain a Tax Payer ID. LSU payroll will file your taxes along with the request for the ITIN number. You will need to bring your 1042-S, your completed tax return, as well as a copy of your passport, your I-94, Visa, and I-20 to your appointment.
Her contact information is below: Yolanda Clark 204 Thomas Boyd Hall 225-578-2592 [email protected]
If you already have a Tax Payer ID (ITIN), you can file your taxes directly with the IRS.
If you are required to submit anything via mail, you should make a copy of everything prior to sending off.
Please let me know if you have any questions along the way and I will try to assist or point you in the right direction.
Geaux Tigers! Blair

Why not add a comment section for Reason that is required that they type in a reason? That is my recommendation because with the options you generally have more than one concept included. Graduation is a reason many enter the portal, but I think a required comment box would be good and get the initial feedback.
Have not been giving options for restriction on transfer once they enter the portal.

Will do. What are your thoughts about adding an initial field when the SA declares that asks reason for transfer:

It may not matter if/when exception is granted but thought we could have SA document in event a waiver is filed. I’m asking the question on the exit interview too, but could ask them to elaborate?
Lastly, are we giving option to staff about placing restrictions on SA (no SEC, schools on our schedule etc.) for those eligible for exception? Did you call HC each time? Again it may not matter soon but wanted to see what you’d been doing.

Need to add sport administrator to the notification email when a SA requests to enter the portal. Not sure why they would need to know that you put them in since you have no choice but to do that, but you can add to that too. Also need to add sport administrator if a request to be removed is processed.
For Football make sure you have Stephanie and Verge copied. For Men’s Basketball make sure you have Stephanie and Matthew Laborde copied.

Will do. I will change the workflow to route to me.
It appears from what I can see that only the submitter, HC and compliance team receive the email when the PSA requests and only the submitter and compliance team receive the email when the SA is put in the portal.
Do you think sport admin can be added to the initial email requesting to be put in?
Do either sport admin/ HC need to receive the confirmation that they were put in?

Blair,
Since you are now conducting the Exit Interviews, why don’t you go ahead and do the administrative part of the Transfer Portal section that I was doing and that way you can enter the information from the exit interview in the database. Please just keep me copied on everything so that I can keep track for APR data.
Did you confirm that Admin is copied on the notification of entering the Transfer Portal?

I have spoken to Mike McCall about conducting an in-person seminar for our students (16 people) and staff (40 staff) on Monday, April 19. He is agreeable to doing so and I told him I would be in touch with more details. He will fly in on Sunday, March 18. We can have him conduct the student training on either Sunday, April 18 @5:00pm OR Monday, April 19 @ 6:00pm. Either timeframe could work. The advantage to Sunday may be less conflicts for students. But, I think either date works and he will do either.
Staff training can be all 40 new staff together or he can conduct a football only training (12 staff) and then other staff separately. Andrea and I discussed this and she is working with football to get schedule for staff training for A Call to Men as well.
I am also watching the video and marking the screen that needs to be edited and requesting video staff edit in the event that we have someone miss the in-person training or have new staff that start prior to May 15 but after April 19 in-person seminar.

Andrea and I discussed briefly today…I like the idea of Mike coming to town and doing it in person for SAs and for staff. Miriam – can you figure out what times work best for Mike and typically our SAs and staff. Once we determine the times, can you work w/ Wendy to tell her how you have typically notified people they need to attend. I would like to move the required training to HR to schedule and track. If you guys can connect and figure out how best to roll this out. I’d like to stay in the loop a bit to at least know when it’s scheduled and perhaps copied on the emails from Wendy to the staff/students who have to attend. Andrea too perhaps? Thanks!! Stephanie

Sure.. the entire spreadsheet is attached for staff. The individuals in the spreadsheet I sent you are staff who have not been through the Title IX training with PFA either because they missed the 3 training opportunities or were hired after the training occurred in January. I do think in the future with staff it would be good to have a mandatory training monthly for new staff hired.
Per our discussion today I will watch the zoom training videos and determine if we can use these to finalize the staff and student-athlete training. Will be in touch soon.

Miriam – can you provide a little more info – is this the group who has not watched the PFA video? Or hasn’t signed the form? Do you have the video link and form? Do you have dates we should add to when the complete them? Maybe if you can send the whole spreadsheet and show us how you track on these. I’m going to have Wendy follow up w/ all of these people. Until we have clarity on the training moving forward, I want to get these transactions done through HR. Thanks! Stephanie

Hi Miriam,
Updating you on WBB numbers I’m giving to Stephanie. Here’s the updated program summary (for Scott’s binder) as well as some other analysis I did. Also, I’ve updated the 1 page compensation analysis as well – I discovered that Kentucky signed their interim coach to a permanent deal, so I’ve updated the conference data with that info. Will let you know if Stephanie requests any changes or anything additional.
