Key Data: The official Web site for Vanderbilt athletics was recently updated in order to give both die-hard and fledgling fans a deeper look into Commodore sports. The new appearance includes added animation as well as more information. Work is still in progress to transfer all the athletics media guide information to the site, so frequent visits will present fans with new facts about Vanderbilt athletic history and records. The site also incorporates daily news by displaying feature stories about Vanderbilt athletics from various local and national publications as well as giving updates from the previous day's games. Eric Nichols, director of online services for the Department of Athletics, said the purpose of these improvements is to draw repeat visitors to the site as well as to Vanderbilt's many sports venues to cheer on the Commodores. Future enhancements are expected to include interactive audio and video elements to display the many assets of Vanderbilt for possible recruits and fans.
