CoSIDA's New Advocacy Publication On The Value and Impact of College Athletics Communications

The focus of CoSIDA's 2020 annual report publication is the value athletic communications professionals demonstrate every day.

This publication is for YOU, especially for those with oversight of athletics communications offices. To our CoSIDA members, this is a celebration of the work you do. Student-athletes, coaches, administrators, fans, parents, donors, media and anyone else who cares about college athletics benefit from your work and your passion.

The reputation of your institution hinges on the quality of your communications. In this report, CoSIDA makes the case for why quality communications professionals are irreplaceable. As you look through these pages, you'll find:

The value of an SID
The value of CoSIDA
CoSIDA's priorities
A review of the 2020 CoSIDA Compensation & Career Satisfaction Survey
The future of CoSIDA's Governance and Leadership Structure
and much more, including quotes from respected individuals from across college athletics, data backed by research, and details on an incredible year by our members in the face of enormous adversity

Hard copies were mailed to our current 2020-21 members and their athletic directors and conference commissioners.

Inside the hard copies you'll find four stickers. Take a photo with one of the stickers and tell us why communications is essential to you on Twitter, Instagram or LinkedIn. Tag @CoSIDAnews and #SIDsMakeItHappen.
