To become a radiologist you must obtain a Bachelor's Degree…

Wednesday after school I observed our school athletic trainer for approximately an hour.

While I was there, I saw a dancer get her big toe taped because she had turf toe, a hyperextension of the Hallicus. Before practice, two girl basketball players got their ankles taped because they recently rolled or sprained them. That day in sports medicine we…

Here you have young men and women who put their bodies on the line day in and day, study late into the night are held to the same standards as there non-athletic…

Over the past 15 years hazing has altered the college culture. Hazing has become a prevalent topic that is a major debate among college and universities. Each year that there isn’t an action taken against it, the amounts of deaths that come from it rise. Hazing is the act of torturing, forcing people against their wills, and humiliating them until they feel unworthy, or until they get very hurt. There have been a multitude of awful incidents that arose in different fraternities, as well as in…

The career that I chose to research is Athletic Administration. Athletic Administration is a field that I believe I can excel. Because I have a passion for the sport and I am an African-American woman, I think that I would be an asset to the profession. This profession is typically dominated by white males. Nonetheless, I think it is a career which I could flourish. I would like an opportunity to pursue a career in athletic administration because of the many possible job opportunities in this…
