Sport Administration students Matthew Cox and Justin McQuistan represented Belmont University as part of Graduate Education Week on March 26 at the Legislative Plaza. They displayed their research, which was an extension of a study conducted by The Wall Street Journal that investigated major college football teams on two axes: projected athletic success and how shameful their activities have been off the field. The students modified this report to examine men’s college basketball programs and explore the concepts of fame and shame within intercollegiate athletics. The Tennessee Conference of Graduate Schools hosted Graduate Education Week to celebrate graduate research in Tennessee.
