As requested in the emails I recieved I've posted the survey below. If you choose to answer please email me directly, or feel free to post comments to answers here on the board. Thanks.


Hello Basketball Officials,

My name is Enzley Mitchell . I’m a currently working on a Masters degree in Sport Management at Indiana State University. In my governance and compliance class I’m working on a project that explores certain aspects of college basketball officiating and more specifically certification, assigning of games and moving up. In order to gather accurate information on my topic I’m asking for help from college basketball officials from around the country. Your name will not be used in my report and this will only be used for my RCSM 635 course at ISU. Please feel free to add any comments you feel would be helpful with my project. Please email your responses or questions to me at [email protected] with ISU officiating survey in the subject line. Printing the questionnaire and emailing your responses to the questions would be fine. Thank you for your help.
