Fair enough, I'm no longer a student at UWM, so I don't really get UWM emails, I don't really walk around the campus much anymore, I don't walk down the hallways on campus anymore, etc. so I don't really see how it's marketed to students. I knew our athletic department has become a bit of a joke in recent years, but I didn't realize it was this lazy. We really do need new blood in that department who really wants to see our athletics department succeed. We have a very good business school at UWM; why can't the marketing and financial sense carry over to the athletic department? On that note i was wondering why they didn't use seniors or graduate school students in the business school to help with marketing for the school. Haha. Make projects out of helping with university issues.

The BGC, armed with their power, can put the pressure on to make red tape go away.

Been a student for 4 years now, if the team is winning....students will come simple as that. This season we had good student crowds to start, but as we started losing it was only the core 10 students at games. We had good crowds for t-shirt games per usual, but other than that the student attendance struggled.
We have all talked about until were blue in the face about the bad marketing to students in the athletic department. We all agree on the same things, it's just unfortunate we really still can't do anything about it.

Were any questions about marketing asked of the finalists for the AD in the open forums? Did any of the finalists address marketing concerns in his/her presentation at the forums?
