New Faculty Member Plays Intramural Sports

By John Wilson

Here at Montevallo, students must find ways to entertain themselves around campus and intramural sports is a great way to do so. But where does that leave room for faculty members who want to have a little fun?

Student Life Coordinator, Bailey Judd, is Student life’s newest faculty member and sees intramurals as the perfect athletic outlet. With a staff of over 20 students, Judd directly oversees campus intramurals and plays on a student team.

After receiving her Master’s in Higher Education knew she wanted to work in some component of Student Life and saw Montevallo as the perfect job opportunity.

“… I was looking for a position where I could use all the skills I had gained over the years but I knew I didn’t want to be in Residence Life. I wanted to go into more of a student programming role, whether it be campus activities or intramurals”, said Judd.

 A few days after her interview, Judd received a job offer and knew this was the place she wanted to start her professional career. 

Though overseeing the activities on campus may be her main duty, this doesn’t stop her from defending her title as the self-proclaimed “Intramural Queen”—especially since her team won the championship game against Phi-Mu.

Judd wants to see more participation from students outside of Greek life and encourages all faculty members to join a team.
