Today was out first weekly staff meeting at UCSD and I must say I have some mixed feelings about the entire thing. At first there were the usual nuts and bolts about changes that we're going to make, students to look out for, etc. After a while we got to a discussion on policies and procedures and boy oh boy that was something I didn't see coming. I think we might have spent about 20 minutes discussing whether female athletic trainers were allowed to wear their hair down and whether or not they had to have it up upon entering the athletic training room or simply before they started working with student-athletes. It got a little heated, which tickled me a little, but I guess it's to be expected when you work in a masculine setting and the women outnumber the men 5 to 4.
On the bright side they made all the GAs feel a little more important when they went around and asked us if there was anything to add and they actually took my suggestion about some improvements to be made.
