The Olympics And Performance Enhancement, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

As has been the custom over the last several decades the Olympic games, and the trials, were plagued by drug scandals and disqualifications. Throw in a few accusations of illegal substance use and you have the international athletics scene in a nutshell. Three British athletes were sent home for drug violations which occurred before the games, a Chinese woman volleyball player and a Russian woman marathon runner were disqualified for use of stimulants, two Americans, a male hammer thrower and a female shot putter were disqualified for use of anabolic steroids, and countless others were disqualified before the games began. …

Baseball Stadiums:Wrigley Field, Tiger Stadium, Skydome, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It is clear why Philip Lowry chose the title Green Cathedrals for his book on the ball parks of America. Over the past two years I have had the good fortune to visit five of them representing three distinctly different eras in baseball history.

Pat Williams Magician- St. Petersburg Giants - Nbc's Final Olympic Overkill, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

There is Magic. There is the Orlando Magic. And now there is the Magician. Pat Williams has clearly earned that title for his latest prestidigitation. I don't know anyone who thought that Williams could pull off the signing of Shaquille O'Neal prior to the deadline to match the offer sheet that Dallas had tendered to Stanley Roberts. Certainly the fact that Rich DeVoss was willing to shell out $40M to get the deal done, and then turn around and cough up another $15M of pocket change for Stanley, made Pat's job a little easier. But nonetheless, Pat Williams has achieved …

Hall Of Fame Inductions: Cooperstown And Akron, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Three weeks ago in the middle of the Olympics two sports conducted their Hall of Fame ceremonies. On Saturday August 1, the NFL held its ceremonies at Canton, Ohio, and on Sunday August 2, Major League Baseball held its ceremonies at Cooperstown.

Olympic Sponsorship:Theme And Variation, Richard C. Crepeau

Does Sex Discrimination Exist In Faculty Salaries At Western Kentucky University? An Empirical Examination Of The Wage Gap, Reed Vesey

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This thesis examines wage differentials between male and female faculty salaries at Western Kentucky University. A human capital model of salary determination is examined by using regression analysis on relevant personal and job characteristics of faculty members. A large portion of the wage gap between men and women is explained through differences in the personal and job characteristics. A portion of the wage gap remains unexplained, however, the probability of discrimination playing a substantial role in salary is very small.

Olympics In Barcelona: Up Close And Personal, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The 1992 Summer Olympics from Barcelona is less than a week old and already I am irritated by any number of things, but especially by NBC. Those who chart such things tell us that NBC will provide 161 hours of mostly taped coverage of the XXVth Olympiad. What they don't tell us is that of these 161 hours, approximately 10 minutes of each hour contains actual event coverage. The other 50 minutes of the hour are filled with commercials from every major U.S. corporation featuring Olympic athletes past and present; promotional spots for NBC programming; endless carping about the personal …

Wimbledon - Baseball At Mid-Season, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The world's oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament is heading into its final weekend. Strawberries and cream at Wimbledon go back over a century, and the royal trappings surrounding this tournament are enough to make a tennis millionaire feel right at home. One suspects however that this year Lady Diana will not make her usual appearance in the Royal Box at Centre Court, with most of the love having gone out of her game.

"Where is this guy coming from?"

Author of The Villanelle: The Evolution of a Poetic Form (1987), editor of two critical anthologies on James Welch and Norman Maclean (1986, 1988), and a full-length collection of his own poems, Composting at Forty (1984), McFarland teaches 17th-century and modern poetry at the University of Idaho.

"A League Of Their Own", Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It may come as a surprise to some that "A League of Their Own," the new motion picture starring Geena Davis, Tom Hanks, and Madonna, is based on fact. The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League(AAGPBL) was founded in 1943 by Philip Wrigley, with the encouragement of Branch Rickey and Bill Veeck.

Expansion In Professional Sports, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The big news in Florida sports last week was expansion. The Florida Marlins sent two farm teams onto the field for the first time, and the dreams of future glory were put into motion. Also the Tampa Bay Lightning began stocking its roster, first with the castoffs of other teams, and then in the entry draft. The big news this week in Orlando was the drafting of Shaquille O'Neal, finally.

The Beauty Of The Athleticism In The Nba And The Nhl, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Two or three decades ago there was a joke that circulated about a kindergarten teacher who asked the children if they knew the four seasons of the year. An eager young boy waved his hand, and shouted the answer: Baseball, Football, Basketball and Hockey. That cute little joke has lost all of its meaning in this, the last decade of the 20th century.

Nba And Nhl:Success And Failure, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

While watching NBA and NHL playoffs over the past few months I have been struck by the remarkable difference between what has happened to these two professional sports leagues in the last ten to fifteen years. Under the leadership of David Stern the NBA has prospered with Bird and Magic, expanding its presence to what is now approaching world-wide dimensions; while the NHL first with Gretzky and now Lemieux languished with John Zeigler at the helm.

The America's Cup, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

I have a confession to make. I enjoy the America's Cup. I watch it on television. It is neither exciting nor rollicking fun, but I find it interesting, and at times filled with tension. Apparently unlike most sports fans I am not bored by it.

Title Ix, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Twenty years ago Title IX of the Educational Amendments Act made sexual discrimination illegal for any high school district or institution of higher education that received federal aid. This meant that it applied to almost every school in the nation. It also meant that in the area of sport, discrimination against women was illegal. This legislation was opposed by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the NCAA. At the time of Title IX's passage college athletics for women were under the auspices of the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women, the AIAW.

Isaac Murphy: A 19th Century African-American Jockey, Richard C. Crepeau

The name Isaac Murphy is not exactly a household word in American Sport, and I suspect even among those who follow horse racing the name is not likely to evoke recognition. But on this day before the Kentucky Derby it might be worth recalling the career of Isaac Murphy.
