I am a new member of the AAF and I am amazed at how unorganized this organization is. I mean this is suppose to be
a major fund raiser for the university sports programs and it is run like they are selling lemonade on my neighbors
front lawn.
I mean I have not received a welcoming letter from the AAF for my participation and donation. They have not even told me
who the officers are. I don't know who the president is or who the treasurer is. I have not received any information as
to when the AAf meets. Is it weekly, monthly or quarterly? I don't know. I would like to know so I can be present and
participate.
I have no proof that I am a member of the AAF. I have not received a card or other credential that I can produce to let others
know I am a member of the AAF. I mean this is ridiculous. I was looking forward to having a card to show and show how proud I
am to be a member of the AAF. Is it that the AAF is trying to save money by not producing cards or other means to show that a
person is a member of the AAF. We are a university not a middle school. We need to act like it and respect our donors better.
When I paid my money to join the AAF the procedure was so unprofessional over in Moore Gym. The person taking my money could
not answer simple questions about the AAF. This person was unsure of their position and was not knowledgeable of anything I
asked about the AAF. After I paid my money the person had the nerve to ask me if I wanted a copy of the form that I filled
out to join the AAF. Of course I wanted a copy because that was the only proof I had that I paid my money (cash).
The AAf needs to communicate better and have people in place that can answer questions and give out information in a very
knowledgeable and professional manner. This is not a mickey mouse organization and it should be operated better. I am very
disappointed in the AAF so far. I have been a member for only a couple of months and I believe the only thing they wanted
was my money and not my personal participation. That hurts.
When is the next damn meeting?
