The University of Michigan loses $2.8 million on athletics despite averaging 110,000 fans at each home football game. Schools across the country struggle with the tradeoffs involved with recruiting athletes and updating facilities for dozens of varsity sports. Does increasing intensification of college sports support or detract from higher education's core mission? James Shulman and William Bowen introduce facts into a terrain overrun by emotions and enduring myths. Using the same database that informed The Shape of the River, the authors analyze data on 90,000 students who attended thirty selective colleges and universities in the 1950s, 1970s, and 1990s. Drawing also on historical research and new information on giving and spending, the authors demonstrate how athletics influence the class composition and campus ethos of selective schools, as well as the messages that these institutions send to prospective students, their parents, and society at large. Shulman and Bowen show that athletic programs raise even more difficult questions of educational policy for small private colleges and highly selective universities than they do for big-time scholarship-granting schools. They discover that today's athletes, more so than their predecessors, enter college less academically well-prepared and with different goals and values than their classmates--differences that lead to different lives. They reveal that gender equity efforts have wrought large, sometimes unanticipated changes. And they show that the alumni appetite for winning teams is not--as schools often assume--insatiable. If a culprit emerges, it is the unquestioned spread of a changed athletic culture through the emulation of highly publicized teams by low-profile sports, of men's programs by women's, and of athletic powerhouses by small colleges. Shulman and Bowen celebrate the benefits of collegiate sports, while identifying the subtle ways in which athletic intensification can pull even prestigious institutions from their missions. By examining how athletes and other graduates view The Game of Life--and how colleges shape society's view of what its rules should be--Bowen and Shulman go far beyond sports. They tell us about higher education today: the ways in which colleges set policies, reinforce or neglect their core mission, and send signals about what matters. 606 $aCollege sports$zUnited States 606 $aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCollege sports 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives 676 $a796.04/3/0973 700 $aShulman$b James Lawrence$f1965-$0150425 701 $aBowen$b William G$0121824 701 $aMeserve$b Lauren A$01049096 701 $aSchonfeld$b Roger C$01049097 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461340903321 996 $aThe game of life$92477803 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04949nam 2200721 a 450 001 9910452648503321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-282-11182-5 010 $a9786613804013 010 $a1-84951-877-7 035 $a(CKB)2550000000107851 035 $a(EBL)978120 035 $a(OCoLC)806205259 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000738006 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12367052 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000738006 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10789468 035 $a(PQKB)10454435 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC978120 035 $a(PPN)228046157 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL978120 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10580618 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL380401 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000107851 100 $a20120731d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurunu||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aJoomla! search engine optimization$b[electronic resource] $edrive people to your site with this supercharged guide to Joomla! and search engine optimization /$fRic Shreves 210 $aBirmingham $cPackt Pub.$d2012 215 $a1 online resource (116 p.) 225 1 $aCommunity experience distilled 300 $aIncludes index. 311 $a1-84951-876-9 327 $aCover; Copyright; Credits; About the Author; About the Reviewers; www.PacktPub.com; Table of Contents; Preface; Chapter 1: An Introduction to Search Engine Optimization; What is SEO?; SEO terminology; .htaccess; 301 redirect (also known as Permanent Redirect); 302 redirect (also known as Temporary Redirect or Found); 404 error (also known as Page Not Found); AdSense; AdWords; Alexa Rank; Alt attribute; Anchor; Backlink (also known as Inbound Link); Bing Webmaster; Black hat; Bot (also known as robot, spider, or crawler); Canonical URLs; Cloaking; Crawl depth; Deep link 327 $aDoorway page (also known as gateway page)Duplicate content penalty; Google Webmaster; Internal link density; KEI; Keyphrase density (also known as keyword density); Keyword (or keyphrase); Keyphrase stuffing; Landing page; Link building; Link farm; Link text (also known as anchor text); Long tail; Meta tags; MozRank; nofollow; Organic rank; Outbound link; Page rank; PPC; Reciprocal link; Redirect; Robots.txt; SEF URLs; SEM; SEOMoz; SERP; SMO; Splash page; Stop word; White hat; XML site map; How search engines assess sites; Summary; Chapter 2: Configuring Joomla's SEO Options 327 $aSetting up Search Engine Friendly URLs Configuring URL aliases; Creating URL aliases for your articles; Controlling the title tag; Article title vs. page title (title tag); Managing metadata; Summary; Chapter 3: Useful Extensions to Enhance SEO; Finding SEO modules; Top SEO modules for Joomla!; AceSEF; Advanced Title Manager; Easy Frontend SEO; Facebook-Twitter-Google+1; iJoomla SEO; JoomSEF; Nice Social Bookmark; obRSS; RSSeo Suite; SEO Canonicalisation Plugin; SEO Friendly Links and Images; SEO-Generator; SEO Links Pro; SEOSimple; sh404SEF; Ultimate Site Tools; Xmap 327 $aInstalling and configuring common SEO modules Implementing metadata management; Setting up canonical URLs; Setting up your XML site map; Implementing control over your Alt and Title attributes; Setting up cross-posting to social networks; Providing social bookmarking; Summary; Chapter 4: Getting Ready for Launch; Determining your SEO strategy; Identifying keywords; Assessing keyword effectiveness; Tapping into the power of stemming and variants; Content strategies for enhancing search engine ranking; Setting up third party services that can assist with SEO 327 $aGetting started with Google Analytics Working with Google Webmaster Tools; Working with Bing Webmaster Tools; Summary; Chapter 5: Managing SEO on a Live Site; Link building; Identifying quality link partners; Managing a link marketing campaign; Creating your own links; Directories; Press releases; Video and file sharing; Social media optimization; Reporting and tracking; Popularity metrics; Traffic source metrics; e-Business metrics; Link metrics; Summary; Index 330 $aDrive people to your site with this supercharged guide to Joomla!
