Webinar #15 – Critical Issues for Athletic Programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities

Panelists explored those issues in intercollegiate athletics that are most significant for athletics programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Topics, among others, included the disproportionate impact of NCAA enforcement processes and NCAA Academic Performance Program standards, the impact of funding disparities between HBCUs and Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs), whether the cultural significance of attending a HBCU is sufficient to retain Black coaches and administrators given their athletic program salary levels, whether corporate social justice programs represent new HBCU sponsorship opportunities, how former Black professional athletes returning to HBCUs are making an impact, and how the new NIL recruiting wars and NCAA restructure may impact HBCU athletic programs.
