Nash, Advisor Kieran Killeen, Ph.D, Chairperson David Rosowsky, Ph.D., P.E., F.ASCE, F.SEI Cynthia J. Forehand, Ph.D., Dean of the Graduate College ABSTRACT For the past five years, I have been a Division I Women’s Basketball player under the National Collegiate Athletic Association. I have played at two different schools, I have spoken to numerous investigators and lawyers, and I am now on my third set of college basketball coaches. Most athletes that enter college have one set of four-five coaches during their four-five-year period, I have had thirteen. College basketball has presented countless challenges for me mentally and psychically. For a while I thought that the adversity that I was facing as a young woman playing a high level of athletics was considered normal, but now that I have grown, reflected, and sought out opinions of professionals I know that my experience wasn’t a “normal” one. Throughout my time as an NCAA athlete I have been home to the harsh routine that so many young student- athletes struggle to get through. In this paper, I am reflecting upon my experience as a college athlete and college sports as I know it. The NCAA is one of the most corrupt corporations in our modern-day world. Despite its claims that ensure success of student- athletes, the NCAA treats athletes not developing human beings, but as objects that contribute to their dirty multi-million-dollar franchise. At the end of the day, they NCAA is a business that operates around making money around student-athlete’s identity and runs in a way that doesn’t benefit student-athletes. Throughout my paper I will be discussing the rules of the NCAA and how they play out in reality, as well as how they can be improved. I am also writing this paper to have a conversation about how hard it is to be a college athlete in general, many people have a false perception of the life we live, and I want to clear some things up. The NCAA doesn’t take the mental health of athletes seriously. There are plenty of opportunities to improve the way the NCAA treats its athletes, while still profiting from the goldmine they make off of amateurism. The NCAA doesn’t put student athletes in a position to take full advantage of their scholarship, let alone gives them a chance at being a healthy, functioning, young adult. I will be telling personal stories that relate to bigger topics and issues within the NCAA, as well as how I think they can be improved for the well-being of college athletes. This paper is my story, this paper is a personal account of the power of resilience. i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to take a moment to acknowledge Professor Robert Nash. It was not until I met you that I thought I had a story worth telling. You have believed in me from the day we met at Chef’s Corner last spring and I can’t believe here I am a year later completing a thesis. Your passion for teaching is something that I have been waiting for in so many of my professors throughout my academic career. Thank you for all that you have done for me, thank you for pushing me to tell my story, thank you for opening up a new world of writing with your creation of SPN methodology. I would also like to acknowledge my Mom and Dad. Mom, thank you for being such a strong, hardworking, and supportive role model in my life. I truly believe that I wouldn’t have made it through this journey without you. Thank you for always pushing me to be my best, and always demanding that I have more to give even on days when I didn’t think I could. I know that your experience as a college athlete has shaped who you are today. You always told me to never give up, and I needed that in more ways than one. Dad, thank you for always being there. Thank you for all of the countless hours that you spent in a gym with me from the moment I picked up a basketball. Thank you for helping me reach my goal of playing Division I basketball, you always believed in me even when other people didn’t. Thank you for all of the traveling and planning to make sure you could catch as many games as possible. I am so thankful that these past three years I have been able to see both of your faces in the crowd. I love you both so much. Lastly, I would like to acknowledge my teammates, particularly the senior class I will be graduating with. I can’t imagine going through these past five years without each II and every teammate that I have met along the way that has had a great influence on my life on and off the basketball court. It has meant the world to me to have come out of this experience with lifelong friends.

As we continue to seek ways to raise Central’s profile in an intensely competitive marketplace, it’s critical that our teams employ a graphic identity that is not only bright and visually appealing but also as unique and distinctive to Central College as the powerful championships legacy our student-athletes have created over the past 125 years. Maintaining brand discipline, while sometimes unpopular, is crucial. By adhering to the standards in this manual, you are helping the college maintain a consistent, recognizable look that will enhance the institutional brand, reduce the likelihood for confusion and help Central and Central athletics stand out from the crowd.

  • The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why It Exists, How It Works, and What It Does
    Author's personal copy Rev Ind Organ DOI 10.1007/s11151-017-9590-z The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why it Exists, How it Works, and What it Does 1,2,3 1,2,3 Allen R. Sanderson • John J. Siegfried Ó Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2017 Abstract In this essay we consider why American colleges and universities par- ticipate in big-time commercialized intercollegiate sports, and how sports came to play such a prominent role on American college and university campuses. We also review how the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) developed as a body to regulate player safety and transformed itself into an economic regulator, the means by which the NCAA attempts to maintain its control, increase revenues, and reduce costs for college sports programs. We also examine how the organization succeeds in the face of institutional characteristics that imply that its cartel activities would be doomed. Finally, we speculate on what changes might be on the horizon for the NCAA and college athletics.

  • Things to Know About Volleyball Recruiting
    THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT VOLLEYBALL RECRUITING Terms to Know NCAA Clearinghouse or Eligibility Center (eligibilitycenter.org) – is the NCAA office that certifies a student-athletes academic credentials to be eligible for Division I and II athletics. You cannot make an official visit to a DI or DII school without being at least registered with the clearinghouse. NCAA Division I – 325 Volleyball teams at some of the most well known schools (Florida, Texas, Duke, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Rider etc). Division I schools are permitted to offer scholarships to up to 12 student athletes for volleyball. Schools that are “fully funded” will only offer full scholarships. Partially funded programs will split scholarships and stack with academic and need based aid money to make you an offer. The season is August and into December, with off-season training through the spring and even summer months at many schools. This is the highest level of college athletics, and is the most demanding. NCAA Division II – 250ish Volleyball teams at lesser known schools (Felician, Georgian Court, Tampa, Lemoyne, Millersville, CW Post). Division II schools are permitted to divide the value of 8 full scholarships among a larger number of student athletes. Many DII schools only have between 1-3 scholarships, which they divide and stack with academic and need based aid, but seldom is it a full package. The season lasts from August through November, with either a limited spring training season, or they have recently approved the addition of beach volleyball as a spring sport which some schools may be adding soon. NCAA Division III – 425 Volleyball teams at a variety of schools (including NYU, Chicago, Johns Hopkins, Williams, Scranton, Kean, St.

  • Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: a Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis
    Journal of Intercollegiate Sport, 2013, 6, 196-212 © 2013 Human Kinetics, Inc. www.JIS-Journal.com ARTICLE Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: A Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis Chris Chard Brock University Joanne MacLean University of the Fraser Valley Brent Faught Brock University Athlete recruitment and delivery of the sport experience are critical components in determining the success of intercollegiate athletic teams and programs. Here, the athletic department brand and the associations of the brand achieved through “touch points” influence student-athletes’ perceptions of the athletic department. The purpose of this study therefore was to understand the perceptions held by student-athletes about the brand of the athletic department. Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) and brand touch point theory were used to accomplish the study’s objective. Specifically, the authors analyzed surveys from 149 student-athletes based at one university in Ontario, Canada to consider athletic department “touch points.” The results proved beneficial for highlighting areas of discrepancy between deemed importance and performance on key recruitment and delivery attributes including scholarship support, spectator support, special treatment, recognition, and quality of facilities. Keywords: university athletics, brand, touch points, recruitment, retention, importance-performance analysis One of the fundamental requirements of a successful university athletic depart- ment is the ability to attract the best student-athletes to represent the institution in varsity competitions (Dailing, 2002; Le Crom, Warren, Clark, Marolla, & Gerber, 2009; Letawsky, Schneider, Pedersen, & Palmer, 2003; Ryan, Groves, & Schenider, 2007).

    THE IMPACT OF A SIGNIFICANT COLLEGE BASEBALL STADIUM PROJECT ON ATTENDANCE, RECRUITING, AND ON-FIELD SUCCESS James P. Richards III A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science (Sport Administration). Chapel Hill 2016 Approved By: Nels Popp Erianne Weight John Brunner © 2016 James P. Richards III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT James P. Richards III; The Impact of a Significant College Baseball Stadium Project on Attendance, Recruiting and On-Field Success (Under the direction of Nels Popp) The purpose of the study was to determine how building a new college baseball stadium or conducting a significant renovation effects on-field success, recruiting and attendance when comparing the three years before and after the stadium project. Recruiting data was obtained from Perfect Game, while attendance and winning percentage data was obtained from information released by the NCAA and on athletic department websites to determine if the millions of dollars athletic departments are spending on facility upgrades lead to improvements in these areas. The study focused on the top-11 NCAA Division I baseball conferences and was narrowed to a sample of 41 baseball programs that conducted a significant stadium project between 2007 and 2013. There were no findings showing a significant relationship between a stadium project and winning games. However, new stadiums led to a significant increase in commitments from top-500 recruits and extensive stadium projects led to an average of an additional 493 fans per game in the three years following the venue opening.

The main part of campus - aside from the Duke Forest and other properties - is nearly 2000 acres, with approximately 500 acres of that being actively maintained. The large amount of tree coverage, road network, topography, and natural drainage system, along with extensive designed landscapes, athletic fi elds and gardens, makes the campus an incredibly rich and complex place. These guidelines are intended to be a resource for creating and maintaining a campus landscape with a certain level of consistency that exists across various precincts with specifi c contextual requirements. These guidelines will help to set the character for the different landscape types while also providing detailed recommendations and precedents for what has and has not worked on campus previously.

  • Neil's Young Trustee Application
    Neil’s Young Trustee Application Name: Neil Kondamuri Year: 2014 Email: [email protected] Phone: 219.384.7907 Class Year and School: Senior / Trinity College of Arts and Sciences 1. What is your perception of the role of Young Trustee? “The reason for including students on the Board of Trustees was ... to get younger members on the Board ... whose viewpoint, close to students, would be a valuable addition.” ­ Terry Sanford on the role of the Young Trustee The Young Trustee is a full voting member of Duke’s governing body for two years of a three­ year term. Thus, the Young Trustee is first a Trustee, with the primary goal of minding Duke’s best interests, and second, a Board member with the unique undergraduate perspective fresh in mind. Similar to Sanford’s perspective, I believe the Young Trustee’s role is to offer the unique perspective of a current or recently graduated student. A typical Duke student is engrossed in a fundamentally different environment in college and post­college than most Trustees were. This distinctive position allows him or her to offer new insights into various questions that a typical Board member may not have. An ideal Young Trustee understands the complexities of life at Duke and should be able to translate that viewpoint into actionable policy. It is important to note that a Young Trustee is not an advocate of any group or its mission, but rather serves as a representative for the general student body’s issues. He or she must embody a typical Duke student and must have an excellent comprehension of problems that concern the student body.
