Task Force on Athletic Admissions Update

March 29, 2007

Memo

To: Sports Reporters

From: Cathy Sams, Chief Public Affairs Officer

On February 22, Clemson President Jim Barker appointed a Task Force on Athletic Admissions to examine the university’s procedures for admitting student-athletes and asked that they complete this work by March 30. The task force has made substantial progress but will not be able to finalize its report and submit it to the President this week because of travel schedules of key members of the task force and its resource group. Two task force members (Ron Bradley and Terry Don Phillips) and a member of the resource group (Oliver Purnell) have been in New York City all week for the NIT, while another member of the resource group (Jack Leggett) has been traveling for away games. We expect to release the group’s recommendations soon, but at this point, I do not have a specific date of release. I appreciate your patience.
