For example, the men’s basketball team went 3-1 in China, climbed the Chinese Wall and hiked Tiananmen Square. The women’s field hockey team travelled to the Netherlands, a global hotspot for the sport and several of our student-athletes competed at the World University Games in Gwangju, South Korea. Having a global perspective in higher education can be very important. Psychological research shows that cross-cultural experiences provide enhanced opportunities for problem solving, creativity, and perspective taking. The Dragon, a celebrated mythical figure in China and Korea, is not only a symbol of strength, but also of devotion, kindness, and gratitude. I personally feel that it is easy to forget this part of humanity in athletics.

  • Ryan King-White Dissertation
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: BASEBALL, CITIZENSHIP, AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN GEORGE W. BUSH’S AMERICA Ryan Edward King‐White, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Dissertation directed by: Professor David L. Andrews Department of Kinesiology The four separate, but related, studies within this research project seek to offer a critical understanding for how American national identit(ies), and particular forms of (cultural) citizenship are discursively constructed and performed in and through the sport of baseball. More specifically, this dissertation will utilize and expand upon critical theories of neoliberalism, citizenship, whiteness, and (physical) cultural studies to engage various empirical sites, which help provide the context for everyday life in contemporary America. Each chapter looks at various empirical aspects of the Little League World Series and the fans of the Boston Red Sox (popularly referred to as Red Sox Nation) that have historically privileged particular performances and behaviors often associated with white, American, heterosexual, upper‐middle class, masculine subject‐positions. In the first instance this project also attempts to describe how ‘normalized’ American citizenship is being (re)shaped in and through the sport of baseball. Secondly, I aim to critically evaluate claims made by both Little League Baseball, and the Boston Red Sox organization, in response to (popular) criticisms (Bryant, 20002; Mosher, 2001a, 2001b, 2001c) of regressive activity and behavior historically related to their organizations, that they

  • 25 Best Moments of Drexel Athletics 2015
    2015 was a very good year for the Drexel Dragons! By offering athletic and recreational opportunities for students–athletes, students, faculty and staff, Drexel athletics embraces and openly celebrates a performance culture of doing. This creates a sense of community that has become a nexus of campus life and a stimulating place for students to compete, play, and recreate in. This sense of personal and collective pride has helped cultivate and shape our athletic department’s identity – I am a Dragon. Now more than ever athletics departments can be of value to their host educational institutions by serving as models for competition, creativity, a healthy life-style, community building, and integrity. The 2015 top 25 celebrates our year in review as well the relevance an athletic department brings to a major comprehensive university such as Drexel. The most recent success of our athletic teams and the popularity of the department’s recreation, intramural, and club sports programs are a testament to the development of collegiate athletics at Drexel University as a dynamic, growing area within institutions of higher education. At Drexel, the student in student-athlete comes first. Our student-athlete Graduation Success Rate was 93% (national average 82%), our graduation rate 82% (66% national average), and our total Cumulative GPA for all student-athletes was 3.28. Bravo! Sports have become part of our national culture, including our educational culture. Sports play an important role in higher education since athletics at all levels requires self-discipline, leadership, managing risks, teamwork and capturing what is possible. Having the opportunity for a Drexel student to take that shot with the game on the line, whether it is intramurals, club, or varsity competition, is the quintessential American Dream for both young women and men.

  • Spellers Converge for 2015 Scripps National Spelling Bee For
    Spellers Converge for 2015 Scripps National Spelling Bee For immediate release MAY 20, 2015 CINCINNATI—285 spellers from eight countries will compete this year for the coveted title of champion at the 88th annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. The Bee will take place May 26 - 28 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland. Once again, the competition began with more than 11 million students participating in spelling bees held in classrooms, schools, and locally sponsored events around the country. For the 285 spellers, the journey that began in their hometowns will find them competing in the main event— making each contestant one of the top .000026 percent of spellers nationwide. “This is an unparalleled journey in word exploration,” said Paige Kimble, executive director of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. “From school bees where millions of students learned words they’ll use throughout their lives, to the national stage where champion spellers will take on the most challenging words in the English language, the Scripps National Spelling Bee is proud to have partnered with tens of thousands of schools to help students improve their spelling, increase their vocabularies, learn concepts and develop correct English usage that will help them all their lives.” This year, the spellers gathering at the Gaylord will bring a diverse cultural background to the Bee, with spellers converging from eight countries: the Bahamas, Canada, China, Ghana, Jamaica, Japan, South Korea and the United States. Competitors hail from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S.

  • Spellers Converge for 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee
    For immediate release (NYSE: SSP) May 22, 2014 Spellers converge for 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee CINCINNATI – The stage is set for the 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee — when the eyes of the nation will look to young spellers vying for the coveted title of champion. The Bee will take place May 27, 28 and 29 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland. “The Scripps National Spelling Bee is one of America's most enduring celebrations of academic excellence. It’s a great American tradition,” said Paige Kimble, executive director of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. “This event spotlights our mission to inspire children to improve their spelling, increase their vocabularies and develop correct English usage that will help them all their lives.” The National Spelling Bee started in 1925 with nine contestants. The E.W. Scripps Company took ownership in 1941 and, after not holding the competition for three years during World War II, has managed the Bee continuously since 1946. 2014 marks the 70th year that Scripps has operated the National Spelling Bee. In that span, the terms “Scripps” and “spelling bee” have become synonymous with one another. In this, the 87th annual National Spelling Bee, the contestants are as exciting, diverse and complex as the words they will attempt to spell. In a competition where letters and words reign supreme, the numbers also are compelling. This year, 281 spellers will converge from eight countries: the Bahamas, Canada, China, Ghana, Jamaica, Japan, South Korea and the United States. Competitors hail from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S.
