Topics include:

• a comprehensive history of the National Collegiate Athletic Association,
• an examination of the funding mechanisms utilized by intercollegiate athletic departments,
• an in-depth magnification of the increasing corporatization of higher education and athletics, and
• a look into potential future debates and lines of inquiry surrounding this topic.

This is the 5th issue of the 41st volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
