An Internship In Administration, Jerry Joe Newell

Activities in which the writer was involved within the athletic department offered limited value towards administrative experience beyond general supervision at athletic events. These activities were not a concern of the internship, since they would not normally be responsibilities of the vocational director.
A considerable part of the internship involved the routine management of the vocational …
