It opened with a question from a college student. Concerned about finding his first job, he asked the candidates about his prospects. By now the election is over, but that same question remains for many Winona State students and their families. It’s particularly important to students approaching graduation.

    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the national stage, the Manhattanville College Athletic Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 300 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2012-13 school year, showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport last year, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established in the last six years alone. And the teams at Manhattanville have proved themselves more than able to hold their own in an increasingly competitive athletic landscape. Fourteen of the school’s 20 intercollegiate programs earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, while both men’s hockey and women’s hockey teams received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2012-13 as well. Field hockey junior Amanda DeChent was named the program’s fi rst-ever NFHCA All-American, giving Manhattanville at least one All-America selection in 13 of the last 14 years, while senior high jumper Bill Motherway was crowned the school’s fi rst champion at the MAC Indoor Track & Field Championships. Manhattanville also boasted two Freedom Conference Players of the Year to go with 45 combined All-Conference honorees. In addition, nearly 40 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas in recent years, including former baseball standout Dan Fiorito ’12, who signed a deal with the New York Yankees in August 2012.

    WHAT MOTIVATES HOCKEY PLAYERS? Analyzing NCAA, AHL, and NHL Hockey Players A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Braydon Cox May/2007 WHAT MOTIVATES HOCKEY PLAYERS? Analyzing NCAA, AHL, and NHL Hockey Players Braydon Cox May, 2007 Economics Abstract The main focus of this study is to examine what factors play the most important roles in hockey player's motivation. Hockey players from NCAA Division I, the American Hockey League, and the National Hockey League are analyzed. After conducting twelve interviews, the player's responses are recorded and displayed in case studies. The research shows that there are many factors that motivate hockey players and that some play more important roles than others. Furthermore, some factors that were expected to be important contributors to hockey player's motivation proved otherwise. Many conclusions are dra'NTI based on the results of the investigation.
