Ethics and College Sports is a careful analysis of the root
problems in intercollegiate athletics in American universities. It
examines the prevalent myths that are regularly used to justify the
inclusion of intercollegiate athletics, and all of the abuses and
scandals it has brought to university campuses, from a moral
perspective. In this book, the myths that amateurism is morally
desirable, that sports brings good moral character, and that the
elite sports programs raise significant sums of money to support
university budgets are dissected. The actual impact of the movement
to provide gender equity in athletics programs on campus is
discussed and a defensible justification for intercollegiate
athletics is offered.
