Department: College of Education iv Abstract The study examined the use of enrollment adjustments used by state high school activity and athletic associations to nonpublic high schools for classification and placement of high schools in state tournaments. Adjustments such as multipliers, reducers, or separate divisions (or classes) in the sports of boys basketball and football were examined. The basketball and football directors of state associations of the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) were surveyed and archival data was collected from Wisconsin and neighboring states during July of 2010. Surveys were sent to 51 basketball directors, 48 of them responded and 40 of 51 football directors of the NFHS state associations responded to the surveys. Concerns over recruiting of high school athletes and the effectiveness of the adjustments were surveyed. Archival data was reviewed for a 5 year period between 2005-2010 for Wisconsin and neighboring states. While the enrollment adjustments of Illinois and Minnesota appeared to provide proportionality to membership winning state championships, the study could not eliminate other factors such as program tradition as reasons for success. v ATHLETIC EQUITY AND PROPORTIONALITY: CLASSIFICATION OF HIGH SCHOOLS IN STATE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATIONS FOR BOYS BASKETBALL AND FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT PLACEMENT A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Argosy University Campus in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Education Wade E.

No Name of the school or college academic planner who you consulted with on this proposal. Name Maddie Sychta - EDU Proposal Abstract/Summary: The University of Wisconsin-Madison proposes to establish a Master of Science degree in Sports Leadership (MSL) in the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis (ELPA). The development of the MSL responds to the need to train leaders to understand the particular demands associated with sports programs, a growing field within educational leadership. Key areas for sports leadership include athletic administration, coaching, justice in sport, legal and financial issues, and sports psychology. Graduates will be prepared for leadership positions within sports programs across levels of play, spanning K-12 and youth programs, colleges and universities, semi-professional, and professional teams. The MSL is unique in that it leverages both the practical and scholarly insights about leadership in athletics, provides an avenue to develop and transmit academic knowledge about sports leadership, and permits students to explore multiple careers associated with sports leadership. The MSL will also bring the University of Wisconsin-Madison into parity with other Big Ten institutions that already provide an opportunity to study sports leadership. The program will be comprised of 30 credits, which will include nine required courses and one elective course. Type of Approval Governance Approval Needed If approved, what term should the proposed change start? (usually the next fall term) Is the change being proposed only a curricular change that would impact fewer than 50% of the credits in the program (i.e., plan or subplan) under consideration?

In July 1996, six Madison-area cartographers began discussing a proposal for a historical atlas of Wisconsin. The mapmakers were part of the newly formed Wisconsin Cartographers’ Guild, and had spent much of their professional careers developing historical maps for encyclopedias and educational curriculum. For years, Wisconsin cartographers, geographers and historians had discussed the possibility of developing such an atlas, which had not been produced in Wisconsin since 1878. Guild members saw the state’s approaching 1998 Sesquicentennial celebration as an ideal opportunity to make the longstanding dream a reality. In 1997, the Guild secured The University of Wisconsin Press as the book’s publisher, and won a grant from the Wisconsin Sesquicentennial Commission to cover half of the Guild’s development costs.
