The NCAA: Major Barrier to High School Reform.
Nathan, Joe
Phi Delta Kappan, v79 n10 p764-68 Jun 1998

The NCAA should stop trying to dictate high school course content, increase scrutiny of its members, tighten academic requirements for on-campus athletes, and compensate underserved disabled students.
