A webcam should have been in place all along. I’m not impressed that we’ll finally get one. Our athletic department administration and communications continue to be mediocre. Things need to be done right the first time.

Zach Dayton @zach_Dayton Webcam to document progress is coming soon, stay tuned 🤘
Stay tuned? Coming soon? Hopefully before the Convocation Center is finished. Coming soon? How hard would be too actually have had a webcam in place BEFORE the demolition took place. Just astounding but not surprising.
Some of you guys are relentless, but you’re entitled to want what you want.
To Zach: Not everybody shares this level of interest in the brick-by-brick update. Wake me when it’s over, and as stated previously I’ll be one of the first to drive over and check it out.
What’s the athletic department doing? - Sitting back and letting the construction crews do the work. Pics are bare minimum. Notifications of the demolition on the Saturday before it happens on Monday is an afterthought. These guys basically had the fall off.
I think if this board was a group of million dollar donors, the attitude and enthusiasm of the admin might be different.
Well, the lack of million dollar donors may be something the school brings on itself.
I made a donation in 1998 toward the construction of the new convocation center. Its 23 years later its still not built. So I have refused to donate more money to this effort for years until I knew the university was serious.
Many issues at Fairfield are self inflicted. A low level of professionalism from some, lack of communication and a lack of basic common sense over a very long period of time has caused some of the cynicism and lack of support you see. I have had great experiences with Zach, I am not pin any way criticizing his efforts. But when you take a big picture look at the administration over a 30 year period, the number of pros have been few and the collection of clowns has been circus worthy.....
It's all about communication, engagement and a connection or reconnection with our fellow alumni, donors, potential donors, Stag fans and the local community. So far with the new Convocation Center it hasn't been all that great by the professionals at the University. Sometimes it seems that there isn't a plan in place until the last minute or too late or not at all. Hopefully that will change?
