Pitt AD Barnes Hopes Newly Created Fan Council Provides Feedback For Department

New Univ. of Pittsburgh AD Scott Barnes yesterday announced plans to "form a committee of fans that will provide feedback to the athletic department," according to Jerry DiPaola of the PITTSBURGH TRIBUNE-REVIEW. The Panther Fans Experience Committee will be "composed of approximately 20 Pitt graduates, fans and students who will serve voluntary two-year terms and meet four times a year." Barnes said that he "intends for the committee's focus to include fan experiences before, during and after games; improved communication between fans and the department; customer service; ticket servicing; donor support; and any other pertinent issues." Barnes expects the committee to "hold its initial meeting in August" (PITTSBURGH TRIBUNE-REVIEW, 6/25).
