A Dream Deferred featuring Dr. Mecca Marsh

Unfortunately college athletes are used to being stereotyped and defined by their identities as athletes. Professors, faculty, and peers tend to have certain prejudices regarding student athletes, and they are usually not positive. More importantly, they are usually inaccurate. Regardless of their truth, however, these perceptions impact the lives of student athletes every day. Today we join Dr. Mecca Marsh to discuss the challenges student athletes face, the impact of paying students, and the varying gender disparities that appear in revenue generating sports.
