  • Benefits Derived from Western's Intercollegiate Athletic Program
    • BENEFllS UEHIVEO FRO~I WESTERN'S INTEHCOLLEG IATE ATHLETIC PHOGRAM In April 1982 an i ndepende nt comn ission was established by the Nationa l Col legiate At hletic Association to study col lege athletics. Its purpose was to concentrate on athletic probl ems and concerns i n Highe r Education. A.. significant sect ion of that report focused on the role of intercol legiate " atnletics at an educational institution with emphasis on the li nk that has existed between amateur athletics and higher educati on during the past- century. In referring to this link . the comnittee declared : " ... one cou ld search at length for a theoretical justification fo r this linkage. but the exercise is meani ngless . The fact is that intercollegiate ath letics today is firmly established as part of the fabric of our education system , and it wil l continue to be in the future . The reason for thi s is clear. Despite all of the problems that have been associated with col lege athletic programs , their contributions to the overall well -being of higher education have outwe i glled their negative aspects. " I am sure each of us agree wi th the report when it states, "the primary function of any educational in stitution is to educa t e its constituency." However . it further conc ludes that "in our society, colleges and universities also serve functions that are ancillary to their basic miss ion" and that these functions are enormously impo rtant to those who share in them . For example, some of these anc ill ary functions are pub l ic service; developing and sustaining an interest in the fine arts ; and intercol l egiate athletic programs .

  • Local TV Coverage of the 2000 General Election
    Local TV Coverage of the 2000 General Election Martin Kaplan, Principal Investigator Matthew Hale, Research Director Most Americans say they get most of their news from local television. We analyzed the local news programs watched by most Americans to find out what news they received on the 2000 general election. We analyzed local broadcast television coverage on 74 stations in 58 markets in the last 30 days before the election to see whether a White House panel’s recommendation of airing five minutes of candidate centered discourse (CCD) a night had an impact. We found that the 74 stations ran an average of 74 seconds of CCD per night. The average sound bite was 14 seconds; 55 percent of the stories focused on strategy; 24 percent focused on issues; and less than 1 percent were adwatch stories.
