Whether you’re a student athlete or not, if you attend Tech, a piece of advice I never get tired of repeating is make sure to take advantage of the many internships and co-op opportunities that are available to students.

If you’re into podcasts and want one to keep you informed about Tech athletics, this is one worth checking out. Athletic Director Todd Stansbury’s podcast features a lot of information as the article mentions. This includes insights into the schedules for football, volleyball, and cross country. Among other topics, Stansbury also discussed the safety precautions that are being taken to keep the athletic community safe.
