The student intern has completed approximately half of their internship working with Western Michigan University Athletics Facilities. In this mid-session evaluation, the intern reports that they have helped the athletics department complete many of their goals for the fall semester, particularly those related to football. The intern's experience has matched their expectations, having previously worked with athletics for two years. The intern feels the experience is helping them gain management experience by now supervising student workers. Both the university and agency supervisors are providing adequate oversight. For the remainder of the internship, the intern hopes to take on more responsibility as a main contact and trusted employee.

AGENCY: Western Michigan University Athletics Facilities DATE: 11/17/2022 1. Briefly summarize to date your exposure to the agency's goals/objectives and practices. I have helped WMU athletic facilities complete a lot of goals and objectives they have had for the fall semester. Specifically, the goals we had for football this season. 2. Is this experience what you expected? Please explain: Yes, I worked with athletics for 2 years before coming the intern, so I knew what I was going to do. Maybe the whole contacting the refs and coaches before matches and games. 3. Explain how this experience is (is not) helping you gain your expected goals from field training. This is giving me a great experience. Specifically, being the intern now. I am managing the student workers now and getting some management experience. 4. Is the supervision (both University and Agency) you are getting adequate? Please explain: Yes. Dr. Cork and Dr. Lewis know that I am working with WMU athletics and always see me working games. Then I have good connections with my supervisors here at WMU athletics facilities. 5. How can the field work experiences be more meaningful?
a. What can you do to make it so?
b. What can the agency do to make it so?
6. What experiences would you like to see be given more emphasis during the remainder of your time with this agency? Becoming a main contact with being that person to call when they need someone to come in or do a shift by themselves. Being a guy they can trust to do a lot of things.
REMEMBER: Candid discussions with the Agency Supervisor of your reactions expressed on this form is one step you can take to make your experience more meaningful.
