Typing up data

I have just got done typing up all of my interview questions and answers from my March 16th interview with Al DeCiccio. I have overlooked all his answers and my questions to ensure myself that I understand his answers, and the questions I asked were the questions I intended to ask. I plan on visiting Al tomorrow to be sure that all of what I said he said is true. and I will ask him if he has any additional information for me. I am very grateful that Al answered my question and set up a meeting without much notice.

Interview with the provost

On Wednesday March 16th I interviewed Al DeCiccio the provost at Southern Vermont College. I asked him if he would mind if i recorded the interview and he insisted I did . I feel like I got a lot of strong information out of the questions that I asked. I felt like my questions were very strong and his answers were very clear. In fact he commented me on how good my questions were. I am confident that this interview will help me a lot.

questions for interviews

1.)  Do you believe that Athletics effect college academics? If yes is it in a good way or in a bad way?
2.) do you believe that being a college athlete is harder than being a college student?
3.) What are the diffrences between a student athlete and a student?
4.) Do you feel like athletes are given easy grades?

Annotated bibliography 3

After makeing my corrections and adding a title page I entered my final draft of the annotated bibliography i was missing a research evaluation worksheet from my folder which brought my grade down. I need to work on being more organized so that things like that do not affect my grade.

Annotated bibliography 2

 After getting my first draft of my annotated bibliography back I realized I had a lot of corrections to do in order to make it final draft quality. I made a lot of grammatical eras I also didn’t include a cover page or a header on each page. I need to use the writing center more often and tutors in order to do better on upcoming projects.

interviewing

I am very excited to set up my interviews this coming week. I plan on interviewing coaches, professors, the Provost, and the president of southern Vermont College. By doing this I hope to get more of a first person perspective of how these people feel about athletics affects on academics. I plan to do these interviews in person and record the meeting. I then plan on typing up the answers and organizing everything. I believe that by interviewing I will get most of my information. I chose to interview people at SVC because it will be easy for me to follow up after interviewing and if I have questions I can go to the person and ask them.
