About College Sports Communicators Membership Appreciation Week
The tenth annual CSC Membership Appreciation Week will be celebrated Nov. 4-9. Celebrate with us on social media using the hashtag #CelebrateCSC, and consider ways to show appreciation for your athletics communicators and creatives during this week.
CSC Membership Appreciation Week is an opportunity for those who interact with college sports communications and creative professionals to observe and celebrate the impact that athletics communicators have on intercollegiate athletics. The week was created to show appreciation for athletic communicators and creatives within the CSC membership and to showcase their efforts and accomplishments. The celebration brings positive recognition to CSC members and their work promoting student-athletes and their institutions/conferences throughout all levels of intercollegiate athletics.
