Not me. I'm practically opaque! But seriously, how would whoever wrote that press release know Linda was black? One look at Marcy would give it away. Who is Marcy?

The Sports Information department wouldn't know that a woman who was their Associate HC for the past five years was African American? Ok. I guess if it's in their bio, "I am African American" they would know. But why would that be in their bio? I guess if she checked the "African American" box on her application. So, should we start advertising, "First openly gay, first Native American, first double mastectomy, first Mexican American", etc? Why does it even need to be mentioned that a new hire is African American?For the same reason female hires get ridiculed on here.

I mean the women served on the Minority Coaches Committee.... and it's in her bio. The SIDs don't have to be geniuses, but maybe at least read the bios of the people you work with who have been there for several years.... It's In her bio that she's black? Why? It's in her bio that she is part of the Minority Coaches Committee.

The point here has nothing to do with the politics or public relations implications of announcing "firsts." It has to do with ASU boasting about its hire and failing to realize that one of their own (very recently former) staff members makes their statement incorrect. Captainobvoius thinks it's not unusual for an SID not to know something like this. I don't really disagree, but that doesn't make ASU's announcement look any less foolish.

Agreed, but her history hasn't changed. This is very common for new hires. It happened for me the last time I had a job switch and was updated a little after I was on the job.
