Should espn have to pay the athletes they show in top 10 plays?
Should they also disclaim there may be other plays better that we don't have access to the video of?
There aren't any athletes at UL that would garner a ROI in advertising dollars
It always seems like too high a majority of athletes are majoring in kinesiology. What becomes of them? Is it the same career field, does it lead to PT school? Clearly not a large pct of them are going on.
Kinesiology has several paths…not all are gonna be teachers, and not all will go to PT school.
PE teachers have to major in education and go through same steps as any other teacher, of which just happen to be kinesiology major as well (same thing as majoring in Music Education…music teachers)
Kinesiology majors can go to get masters degree in exercise physiology, doctoral of physical therapy / occupational therapy, various other health/wellness fields (wellness director position), athletic training, strength / conditioning coaches, personal trainers, and honestly more to be honest.
It’s a diverse bachelors degree which is good to have options.
Myself, I went back to school for nursing.
So don’t knock kinesiology by saying everyone is goin just to be PE teachers.
What becomes of them? I'd say a significant number never finish their degree requirements. Getting an opportunity to play collegiate athletics comes with a monikor, "student-athlete." Those that get the right guidance and advice from others will push themselves to be the best they can be as both an athlete and student. There are no guarantees an athlete will make it past the collegeiate level. A student that chooses wisely when selecting a major will earn a degree that can put them on a path to financial security.
It should be the same analysis that any college student seeking an undergraduate diploma as a prerequisite for a post graduate special occupational degree . . . medical school, law school, PT school, chiropractic school should apply . . . I always advise that you may not get in, once you are in you may not like it, circumstances may change where you really can’t afford to attend another 3 or more years of school (pregnancy, death of a person providing support, costs rising to an amount not expected, etc.), so choose wisely when selecting a major for your undergraduate degree, select one that you will earn a degree and that can put you on a path to financial security if that ends up being your final degree. Instead of pre law, general studies or history, get a business degree (preferably accounting), engineering degree, nursing degree, science degree, etc.
