Hi Jeff,
If you go to Section Editors menu, then click modify on the section that contains the date field, then click modify on the date field. You should see a drop down menu called 'Default Value', if you select 'Current Date' from the drop down, after today's date should be added to the field automatically when creating a record in the admin area.
Thanks!
