    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Hoops, History, and Crossing Over: Boundary Making and Community Building in Japanese American Youth Basketball Leagues A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Christina B. Chin 2012 Copyright by Christina B. Chin 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Hoops, History, and Crossing Over: Boundary Making and Community Building in Japanese American Youth Basketball Leagues by Christina B. Chin Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Min Zhou, Chair My dissertation research examines how cultural organizations, particularly ethnic sports leagues, shape racial/ethnic and gender identity and community building among later-generation Japanese Americans. I focus my study on community-organized youth basketball leagues - a cultural outlet that spans several generations and continues to have a lasting influence within the Japanese American community. Using data from participant observation and in-depth interviews collected over two years, I investigate how Japanese American youth basketball leagues are active sites for the individual, collective, and institutional negations of racial, ethnic, and gendered categories within this group. Offering a critique of traditional assimilation theorists who argue the decline of racial and ethnic distinctiveness as a group assimilates, my findings demonstrate how race and ethnic meanings continue to shape the lives of later-generation Japanese American, particularly in sporting worlds. I also explain why assimilated Japanese ii Americans continue to seek co-ethnic social spaces and maintain strict racial boundaries that keep out non-Asian players. Because Asians are both raced and gendered simultaneously, I examine how sports participation differs along gendered lines and how members collaboratively “do gender” that both reinforce and challenge traditional hegemonic notions of masculinity and femininity.

In 1970, the Charter Class of 18 honorees was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Since then, a select number of administrators, coaches, players and prominent contributors to athletics in Utah have been inducted annually into the Hall of Fame. A beautifully-crafted plaque of recognition honoring each inductee is displayed in special display cases in the main concourse of the Energy Solutions Arena. In 1997, the organization officially changed its name to the current USHOFF. In 1972, the OTAA began honoring others who have made substantial contributions to the Utah sports community. The foundation started hosting annual and biannual recognition banquets for the following: 1. Distinguished Utah High School Head Coaches; 2. Utah “Coaches of Merit” (Head coaches who had spent many years in both high school and college); 3. Outstanding Game Officials in all sports from high school and college; 4.

    MICHAEL T. BENSON President and Professor of Government Eastern Kentucky University 521 Lancaster Ave Richmond, Kentucky 40475 Tel. 859.622.2101 [email protected] https://president.eku.edu/ Michael T. Benson, D.Phil., is the 13th President of Eastern Kentucky University, a position he assumed on August 1, 2013. He also holds the rank of Professor of Government and teaches within the Department of History as well. In his current role at EKU, Dr. Benson is responsible for more than 17,000 students on three campuses, nearly 2,300 full-time faculty and staff, sixteen Division I athletic teams, and an annual budget in excess of $355 million. EKU enrolls more native Kentuckians than any other institution in the Commonwealth. In 2016, EKU had its highest enrollment ever, and, despite deep cuts to state appropriations, the university has achieved its four best fundraising years in the institution’s history during Benson’s tenure. Since 2013, significant increases in retention and graduation rates have also been realized, and EKU welcomed its best-prepared and most diverse freshman class to campus in fall 2017. The University has doubled its four-year graduation rate in the past eight years and awarded 4,154 degrees this past academic year—the most in its 145-year history. EKU is nearing the end of an aggressive $240 million campus revitalization which is being completed entirely with non-state-appropriated funds. Prior to his chief executive post at Eastern Kentucky, Benson was the 15th president of Southern Utah University, where he helped secure the designation for SUU as the state’s public liberal arts and sciences university; established the Hispanic Center for Academic Excellence; gained admission into the Big Sky Conference for all athletic teams; completed new residence halls, a teacher education facility, and a science and engineering center; and directed the development and implementation of SUU’s largest and most ambitious comprehensive fundraising effort.
