It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

Running Head: EXPLOITATION IN COLLEGE SPORTS 1 Exploitation in College Sports: The Amateurism Hoax and the True Value of an Education Bill Doane The University of Texas at Austin EXPLOITATION IN COLLEGE SPORTS 2 Exploitation in College Sports The Amateurism Hoax and the True Value of an Education Introduction Racism and exploitation in intercollegiate athletics have garnered a great deal of scholarly attention over the last thirty years. As athletic departments’ revenues from ticket sales and from football and men’s basketball television contracts continue to grow, the critical discourse regarding the treatment of student-athletes mounts. Between 1996 and 2013, the TV contracts for major college football grew from $185 million to $725 million, and the 2017 NCAA March Madness basketball tournament generated $1.1 billion in television rights alone. However, the NCAA national office is not alone in such riches. Individual universities enjoy sizeable revenues from their successful football and men’s basketball teams with schools like the University of Wisconsin and the University of California, Los Angeles, receiving $6.5 million each for merely participating in the 1994 Rose Bowl Game, the post-season event dubbed “The Granddaddy of Them All” (Eitzen, 1996). Some of these bowl game revenues are passed along to college coaches in the form of incentive bonuses on top of their considerable salaries (the average salary for major college football head coach during the 2016-2017 academic year was in excess of $3.3 million) but most of these revenues are reinvested in the program or used to support other, non-revenue generating teams on campus.
