Blueprint for Success: An In-Depth Analysis of Ncaa Division III Athletics and Why It Should Be the Model for Intercollegiate Reform

Many books claim to be one-of-a-kind; unique. BLUEPRINT FOR SUCCESS is such a book. Why? It is the only book that examines & uncovers the factors causing the exploitation of college student-athletes & repeated violations by NCAA Division I athletic teams. It then provides a logical model for reform based on NCAA Division III. Many in Division I state this is a laughable, preposterous solution. True, Division III institutions do not possess the glamour of their televised brethren, do not have multimillion dollar television contracts or provide athletic scholarships. But Division III can boast of academic integrity & presidential control, all pitfalls for Division I. Author David F. Salter interviewed more than 40 college presidents, athletic directors & coaches who weren't afraid to reveal how their programs work. BLUEPRINT FOR SUCCESS discusses the role of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, & exposes the mythically created image of the NCAA as an intercollegiate enforcer. In addition to general consumer interest by high school parents & student-athletes, the book is currently being utilized as text in college courses - "Media, Sports & Society," "The Sociology of Sport," & institutions with sports management curriculum.Salter, David F. is the author of 'Blueprint for Success: An In-Depth Analysis of Ncaa Division III Athletics and Why It Should Be the Model for Intercollegiate Reform' with ISBN 9780963668004 and ISBN 0963668005.
