In a field overwhelmed by reliance on anecdotes, the factual findings are striking--and sobering. Anyone seriously concerned about higher education will find it hard to wish away the evidence that athletic recruitment is problematic even at those schools that do not offer athletic scholarships. Thanks to an expansion of the College and Beyond database that resulted in the highly influential studies The Shape of the River and The Game of Life, the authors are able to analyze in great detail the backgrounds, academic qualifications, and college outcomes of athletes and their classmates at thirty-three academically selective colleges and universities that do not offer athletic scholarships. They show that recruited athletes at these schools are as much as four times more likely to gain admission than are other applicants with similar academic credentials. The data also demonstrate that the typical recruit is substantially more likely to end up in the bottom third of the college class than is either the typical walk-on or the student who does not play college sports. Even more troubling is the dramatic evidence that recruited athletes "underperform:" they do even less well academically than predicted by their test scores and high school grades. Over the last four decades, the athletic-academic divide on elite campuses has widened substantially. This book examines the forces that have been driving this process and presents concrete proposals for reform. At its core, Reclaiming the Game is an argument for re-establishing athletics as a means of fulfilling--instead of undermining--the educational missions of our colleges and universities. 606 $aCollege athletes -- Education -- United States 606 $aCollege sports -- United States 606 $aEducation, Higher -- Aims and objectives -- United States 606 $aSchool sports -- United States 615 4$aCollege athletes -- Education -- United States. 615 4$aCollege sports -- United States. 615 4$aEducation, Higher -- Aims and objectives -- United States. 615 4$aSchool sports -- United States. 676 $a796.04/3/0973 700 $aBowen$b William G.$0121824 701 $aCampbell$b Colin G$01575215 701 $aKurzweil$b Martin A$01575216 701 $aPichler$b Susanne C$01575217 701 $aShulman$b James L$0150425 702 $aLevin$b Sarah A. 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789415003321 996 $aReclaiming the Game$93851987 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04714nam 2200769 a 450 001 9910146113803321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786612026256 010 $a9781282026254 010 $a1282026259 010 $a9781780341903 010 $a1780341903 010 $a9780470704721 010 $a0470704721 010 $a9781444331677 010 $a1444331671 010 $a9781444305982 010 $a1444305980 010 $a9781444305999 010 $a1444305999 035 $a(CKB)1000000000725501 035 $a(EBL)437482 035 $a(OCoLC)341702659 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000168096 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11161511 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000168096 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10179076 035 $a(PQKB)10821754 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC437482 035 $a(PPN)160179416 035 $a(Perlego)2784251 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000725501 100 $a20080305d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 04$aThe handbook of Pidgin and Creole studies /$fedited by Silvia Kouwenberg and John Victor Singler 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aChichester, West Sussex ;$aMalden, MA $cWiley-Blackwell Pub.$d2008 215 $a1 online resource (704 p.) 225 1 $aBlackwell handbooks in linguistics 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780631229025 311 08$a0631229027 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and indexes. 327 $aNotes on Contributors; List of Abbreviations; 1 Introduction SILVIA KOUWENBERG AND JOHN VICTOR SINGLER; Part I Properties of Pidgins and Creoles; 2 Atlantic Creole Syntax DONALD WINFORD; 3 Forging Pacific Pidgin and Creole Syntax: Substrate, Discourse, and Inherent Variability MIRIAM MEYERHOFF; 4 Pidgin and Creole Morphology TERRY CROWLEY; 5 Creole Phonology NORVAL S.
