  • Keeping Faith with the Student-Athlete, a Solid Start and a New Beginning for a New Century
    August 1999 In light of recent events in intercollegiate athletics, it seems particularly timely to offer this Internet version of the combined reports of the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics. Together with an Introduction, the combined reports detail the work and recommendations of a blue-ribbon panel convened in 1989 to recommend reforms in the governance of intercollegiate athletics. Three reports, published in 1991, 1992 and 1993, were bound in a print volume summarizing the recommendations as of September 1993. The reports were titled Keeping Faith with the Student-Athlete, A Solid Start and A New Beginning for a New Century. Knight Foundation dissolved the Commission in 1996, but not before the National Collegiate Athletic Association drastically overhauled its governance based on a structure “lifted chapter and verse,” according to a New York Times editorial, from the Commission's recommendations. 1 Introduction By Creed C. Black, President; CEO (1988-1998) In 1989, as a decade of highly visible scandals in college sports drew to a close, the trustees of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation (then known as Knight Foundation) were concerned that athletics abuses threatened the very integrity of higher education. In October of that year, they created a commission on Intercollegiate Athletics and directed it to propose a reform agenda for college sports. As the trustees debated the wisdom of establishing such a commission and the many reasons advanced for doing so, one of them asked me, “What’s the down side of this?” “Worst case,” I responded, “is that we could spend two years and $2 million and wind up with nothing to show of it.” As it turned out, the time ultimately became more than three years and the cost $3 million.

Desde sus primeros pasos en el profesionalismo, la figura del zurdo de Vitacura se ha convertido en uno de los ejes fundamentales de la prensa deportiva nacional, reactivando un segmento deportivo que estaba sumido en una de las crisis más grandes de los últimos años. Marcelo Ríos se ha transformado en una de las figuras noticiosas más importantes de nuestro país. Portada de diarios y revistas, ya sea deportivos o no; figura recurrente en los estelares de televisión; foco noticioso recurrente de noticieros; personaje de interés por su juego y personalidad ha contribuido enormemente a la difusión del deporte blanco en nuestro país que, por fin, cuenta con un ídolo que le permita recuperar el rumbo perdido.

Michael Jordan, the league's most popular player and one of the world's most recognized athletes, led his Chicago Bulls to six world championships in the decade and the NBA finals to higher television ratings. Even though Jordan announced his retirement in 1998, the league does not suffer from a lack of super- stars poised to take his place. While the league may have lost Larry Bird as a player, it later regained him as a coach. Ervin "Magic" Johnson's retirement due to contracting HIV could have proven difficult for the league; instead, he was hailed as a hero for courageously speaking out on his disease.
