Gutierrez Rosa M. Banda Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Abstract Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) enroll the majority of Latinx undergraduate students and constitute the second-largest institutional type in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I (D1). Yet, little is known about the role intercollegiate athletics play in fostering educational outcomes for Latinx students at HSIs. Under the guise of Latinx critical race theory, this qualitative study examined how HSIs operate both the federal designation and NCAA D1 membership in relation to athletic participation and completion outcomes for Latinx student-athletes. Document analysis was utilized to disaggregate data from various reports to identify the HSI-D1 institutions and their Latinx athletes’ participation, and graduation rates. These findings were then compared to the overall NCAA D1 averages. Among the findings, Latinx student-athletes graduated at higher rates than non-athletes from the HSI-D1s.

  • Report of the Ncaa Division I Council February 17, 2021, Videoconference
    REPORT OF THE NCAA DIVISION I COUNCIL FEBRUARY 17, 2021, VIDEOCONFERENCE In an effort to connect NCAA Division I Council items to the NCAA pillars of academics, fairness and well-being, items included in this report have an identifying pillar. There is an additional pillar, operational, that is used to denote items that relate to maintaining a stable and efficient Division I. KEY ITEMS. 1. Extension of the Temporary Recruiting Dead Period. (Academics/Fairness/Well- Being/Operational) The NCAA Division I Council adopted emergency temporary legislation to extend the temporary recruiting dead period (as defined in NCAA Bylaw 13.02.5.5) in all sports through May 31. In addition, the Council committed to providing clarity regarding permissible recruiting activities beginning June 1 (e.g., campus visits, evaluations) as soon as possible, and not later than its April 14-15 meeting. The extension reflects the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns regarding in-person interaction among prospective student-athletes, institutional staff, and student-athletes. Extending the recruiting dead period now provides the membership and prospective student-athletes with clarity regarding the status of permissible recruiting activities for the remainder of the spring 2021 academic term. 2. Legislative Action – NCAA Division I Proposal No. 2019-25 Adopted. (Fairness/Well- Being/Operational) Legislative actions taken by the Council are listed in Attachment A. Voting results are available in Attachment B. The Council removed Proposal No. 2019-25 from the table and adopted the legislation, which applies to bowl subdivision football and men’s and women’s basketball. The proposal specifies that the definition of an individual associated with a prospective student-athlete does not include an individual who maintained (or directed others to maintain) contact with a prospective student-athlete (or a prospective student-athlete’s relatives, legal guardians or coaches) only while employed in the athletics department at another four-year institution.
