In “Game or Study? The Real Question on Intercollegiate Athletics,” we take a critical look at the current state of college athletics and explore the challenges and opportunities facing the future of intercollegiate sports.
We examine the financial pressures that have led to the rise of big-time athletics and the exploitation of student-athletes, as well as the impact of social media and the media on the college sports landscape. We also explore the academic challenges faced by student-athletes and the need for a better balance between athletics and academics.
We argue that universities need to prioritize the academic success of their student-athletes and provide them with the support they need to succeed in the classroom. We also propose a number of reforms that could help to address the problems facing college athletics, including increasing transparency and accountability, strengthening academic standards, and reducing the influence of money in college sports.
This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of college athletics. It is a call for a fundamental change in the way that college sports is governed and operated, and it offers a vision for a system that is focused on the educational mission of universities and the well-being of student-athletes.
Whether you are a fan of college sports, a student-athlete, a university administrator, or simply a concerned citizen, this book will challenge you to think critically about the role of athletics in higher education and the future of college sports in America.
