CU has had only five faculty representatives since the end of World War II and has had but four athletic directors in its history. Not including coaches, 21 people have worked at least 15 years for the athletic department in various capacities. Five have worked over three decades: athletic director Harry Carlson (38 years), current associate AD Jon Burianek (37), sports information director and assistant/associate athletic director Fred Casotti (35), equipment manager Silver Akins (34), and business man- ager/assistant AD Kayo Lam (31).
