Al Shrier is the dean among national college sports information directors with 55 years of service.

Shrier officially retired from his position as Temple SID on June 30, 1995, but due to necessity, returned to the post during the 1995-96 academic year. He is currently the special assistant to the director of athletics and is in charge of credentials, media services and hospitality at Temple sporting events.
