Sacred Cows, Competition, and Racial Discrimination.
McCormick, Robert E.; Meiners, Roger E.
New Perspectives, v19 n1 p47-52 Win 1988
Proposition 48 of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), which calls for tougher academic standards for students seeking to participate in Division I athletics, discriminates against Black athletes and historically Black colleges and universities. The NCAA violates antitrust laws by price-fixing; it is not essential or even important to amateur athletics. (BJV)
