  • Basketball and Philosophy, Edited by Jerry L
    BASKE TBALL AND PHILOSOPHY The Philosophy of Popular Culture The books published in the Philosophy of Popular Culture series will il- luminate and explore philosophical themes and ideas that occur in popu- lar culture. The goal of this series is to demonstrate how philosophical inquiry has been reinvigorated by increased scholarly interest in the inter- section of popular culture and philosophy, as well as to explore through philosophical analysis beloved modes of entertainment, such as movies, TV shows, and music. Philosophical concepts will be made accessible to the general reader through examples in popular culture. This series seeks to publish both established and emerging scholars who will engage a major area of popular culture for philosophical interpretation and exam- ine the philosophical underpinnings of its themes. Eschewing ephemeral trends of philosophical and cultural theory, authors will establish and elaborate on connections between traditional philosophical ideas from important thinkers and the ever-expanding world of popular culture.

  • Important Information That Bcam Memb
    FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: Tom Hursey: IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT BCAM MEMBERS MUST HEAR AND ACT ON: Can you imagine a rule for high school sports that allows for students to transfer for any reason before the school year starts? How about transferring during the school year or during a current season with no repercussions? If a couple of your state legislators get their way, this could be how Michigan deals with transfers. You say that couldn't happen! Well, did you know that in Florida, Florida's State Athletic Association is governed by their state government. In this state, an athlete can move before each school year for athletic reasons all four years. There are legislators in that state that are proposing to allow an athlete to move at any time during the school year, even during a season. Talk about the Wild, Wild West! Last month, matching legislation was proposed under House Bill 5393 and Senate Bill 746 aimed at eliminating the MHSAA Transfer Rule. On Jan. 18, 2018, the matter was removed from the agenda of the House Education Reform Committee. Concern remains that there may be some lawmakers supportive of such action or other legislation proposed to interfere with the MHSAA service and support to schools. I guarantee that if the state government takes over the MHSAA, you will not like the results. Anytime a school believes that the rules don't apply to them, you will see Michigan legislators wanting to change the rules to fit their constituent's situation. They will not care about what is BEST FOR ALL STUDENT/ATHLETES.
