Are College Sports Broken?
with Dr. Mark A. Emmert
NCAA President
Founded more than 100 years ago to protect student-athletes, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) continues to implement that principle with increased emphasis on both athletics and academic excellence. It oversees 89 championships in
23 sports, and there are more than 400,000 student-athletes competing in three divisions at over 1,000 colleges and universities within
the association.
Join us as Dr. Mark A. Emmert discusses the NCAA's efforts to embrace academics and to also protect and sustain the collegiate student-athlete model.
