@1QLeadership Question: Can the Faculty Athletics Representative's (FAR) role overlap with their research and professorial responsibilities? As a Faculty Athletics Representative at Texas Tech, Professor Brian Shannon is responsible for advocating for student-athlete welfare. While his primary teaching responsibility is contract law, he focuses his policy and research work on mental health law, an area he has been researching for a lifetime due to his family experience with mental illness. Professor Shannon explains that mental illness patients often get caught in the criminal justice system without receiving treatment. He also emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between having a mental illness and dealing with mental health challenges. As mental health is a top issue faced by NCAA student-athletes, the NCAA Mental Health Best Practices are continuously updated to provide support. - One Question Leadership Podcat - Tai M. Brown

Lisa Sardinia grew up in California, Nevada and Washington, moving nine times before graduating from high school. She attended Whitworth University in Spokane and received a B.S. in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. Then she moved to Bozeman, Montana, where she skied cross-country, climbed mountains, and rafted many rivers. And she also earned a Ph.D. in Microbiology, with a minor in Biochemistry, from Montana State University, studying the replication of coronaviruses. Following graduate school, she was awarded a National Cancer Institute research fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco studying molecular genetics. Then she began a teaching career, first at San Francisco State University, then at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. The west coast called, though, and she moved back to the Bay Area and enrolled at the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, where she earned a J.D. She clerked for a federal district court judge in San Francisco and worked in a patent law office in Palo Alto before coming to Pacific University. At Pacific, she taught a variety of classes in three colleges, from Microbiology to Companion Animal Science in the College of Arts and Sciences, Biochemistry and Genetics in the College of Optometry, and Human Genetics in the Physician Assistant Studies program. Her research with students has spanned a number fields, including the effect of essential oils and plant extracts on the growth of pathogenic bacteria, gene expression in paddlefish, microbiological analysis of freshwater streams in Chehalem Ridge Natural Area and wetlands at Fernhill Wetlands, and identification of native yeasts in samples collected throughout the fermentation process from a local winery. She was co-primary investigator for a $257,000 NIH grant—Faith Forum on Genetics: An ELSI Educational Intervention for Religious Communities. Her public scholarship activities include numerous Science Pub and Science on Tap presentations, as well as presentations to various professional and community groups on stem cell research and ethics, genetic testing, epigenetics, gut microbiota, and the biology of sex and gender. She served as Pacific's Faculty Athletics Representative for 20 years, including several years as a member of two national NCAA committees. She has been the Pre-Optometry Club advisor, the College of Arts & Sciences faculty chair, and the University Faculty Secretary. She enrolled in two Computer Science classes to prepare for a sabbatical leave spent developing a Bioinformatics major (and taking three Bioinformatics courses at OHSU). She has been the recipient of the Thomas J. and Joyce Holce Endowed Professorship in Science and the S.S. Johnson Foundation Award for Excellence in Teaching. She lives on a small farm with her partner, John, her overly exuberant German Shepherd-Husky dog, Shasta, and her absurdly fluffy cat, Arlo. She spends her time on the farm trying to put into practice the principles she learned while earning a certificate in Permaculture Design through Pacific. All production by Cody Maxwell.

In this episode we examine the topic of Name, Image, and Likeness rights (NIL) and how this item is changing the landscape of college athletics and amateurism. We are joined by two individuals that help explain the matter in more depth, both from a University of Memphis perspective and the larger legal landscape. Lynda Black is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Memphis and serves as the Faculty Athletics Representative to the NCAA for the UofM. Professor Black is also a Division 1 Faculty Athletics Representative Board Member and has worked extensively on NIL matters. Dr. Adam Walker is the Executive Associate Athletic Director for Administration at the University of Memphis.

Trustees and Presidents- Opportunities and Challenges In Intercollegiate Athletics
The United States Military Academies play an important role in developing future leaders. All five of the Academies offer competitive athletic programs. As academic excellence is a cornerstone for each one, I wanted to understand how the Faculty Athletics Representative functions inside the military chain of command. This FAR can walk into the Vice-Admiral's Office (aka the Superintendent) at the Naval Academy whenever she has an academic concern. My guest is Dr. Christine Copper, a professor of chemistry at the U.S. Naval Academy. In addition to representing the Naval Academy as its FAR since 2008, she was also the first-ever FAR on the NCAA Division I Board of Directors. She co-chaired the NCAA working group on Values-Based Revenue Distribution that brought historic change to the NCAA’s financial distribution model by including academic incentives for the first time ever. She is also is the past President of the Faculty Athletics Representative Association. She was appointed to the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics in 2018, and to date, is the only FAR to serve on that board. Read my article about why Cadets at the Military Academies will be prohibited from monetizing their NILs, no matter what the states decide. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/karen-weaver/message

Chris Span is Associate Dean of Graduate Programs and Professor in the College of Education at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Professor Span also serves as a Faculty Athletics Representative to the Big Ten Conference and the NCAA. Chris is a prolific scholar – a historian of American education – who is widely regarded as one of the leaders in his field. Notably, he is the author of the acclaimed book From Cotton Field to Schoolhouse: African American Education in Mississippi, 1862-1875. Originally from Gary, Indiana, Professor Span is also an elite pocket billiards player who learned the game as a youngster in Chicago and went on to travel the country competing at the highest levels of his game. He shares rich research and life-informed insights for coaches on history, knowing context, mentoring, and parent involvement. In this SGG episode, we discussed: 1. His “accidental” journey to becoming a professor – including the advisor at Illinois (JoAnn Hodges) who supported him at a key juncture…And why he still shovels her driveway all these years later! 2. How another mentor, his former professor Paul Violas, encouraged his trajectory to graduate school: “Maybe you should have a little more confidence in yourself because there seems to be people who have a lot of confidence in you.” 3. Why JoAnn Hodges made a difference: “She spoke to me like we were family… I had never met anyone in college who spoke to me like a family member.” 4. “I believe that maybe she saw something in me that I couldn't see in myself at that point in my life.” 5. How he became an elite pocket billiards player – and the relationships he formed along the way. 6. What his mentor, Bugs, “the Michael Jordan of pocket billiards,” said to Chris when Chris considered leaving school to pursue billiards full time. 7. The importance of knowing the history and context of the places we work. “How am I a part of this larger narrative?” 8. “No matter your station of life, you should be able to relate to people at their level.” 9. The danger of hubris when coming into a new place or a new position. 10. “Don't shy away from the past, but don't let the past guide you to the point where you are debilitated by it.” 11. Mentoring by showing and listening instead of speaking. 12. Dean James Anderson's mentoring by storytelling. 13. The kindness and compassion of his wife, another important mentor in his life. 14. Being flexible and adaptive. 15. “All young people need to grow into adulthood through trial and error.” 16. “If parents lay the foundation for their kids, it will bear fruit.” 17. “I've learned far more from my failures than from my successes.”

For this episode, I interview Dr. Tim Coffey an Assistant Professor of Kinesiology at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. He serves as Longwood University’s Faculty Athletics Representative to the NCAA. Dr. Coffey’s teaching duties include Biomechanics, and Civic Engagement Through Sport and Exercise, and his primary research focuses on lower extremity injury risk reduction and the role that strength and conditioning plays in this reduction. That’s a long introduction, isn’t it? I swear this guy has like 23 degrees or something. Good grief. We discuss the following: What is biomechanics and what do you study? How is this useful for sports? How does inactivity impact sports performance? Strength and conditioning coaches - what do they do? How does inactivity impact sports injury rates? In other words, why do football players need some time to get in condition before playing. What types of activities can people do at home to stay in shape? Getting up to get a beer out of the fridge does not count. Civic Engagement Through Sport and Exercise - What is this course about? Dr. Coffey brought up that UNO has a phenomenal biomechanics department, something I did not know. We also discuss the future of biomechanics, including “exoskeletons”. Please Subscribe!

Trustees and Presidents- Opportunities and Challenges In Intercollegiate Athletics
A few weeks ago, I wrote a column for Forbes about what lies ahead for athletics beyond the inevitable furloughs and layoffs. Today, I'll outline some of the strategies organizations should take to embrace the new normal, and not just fall victim to it. I'm also joined by Dr. Pam Bruzina, professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia, and also their Faculty Athletics Representative to the Tigers Division I athletics program. Some of the topic areas we discussed included: How often do you interact with the President, the Athletic Department, the Faculty Senate (on issues regarding athletics) and any other campus wide committees? What kinds of conversations do you have with each area? Do you deliver presentations to the Board of Trustees? And how often do you interact with the other FARs of the SEC? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/karen-weaver/message

Since the summer of 2014, ISIS has been waging a blitz through Iraq's Nineveh province, murdering and displacing Iraqi Christians and others. The European Union, Britain, and the U.S. have labeled the campaign to eradicate Christianity from Iraq as genocide. However many in the West, even Christians, remain unaware of the scale of this persecution, and even fewer know what can be done about it. The Persecution and Genocide of Christians in the Middle East focuses on persecuted Christians, but its analysis applies equally to the other victims. In the United States, military and diplomatic responses are contemplated and sometimes undertaken. But what about the legal system? Are there things we can or should be trying? That question animates this book as it explores various facets of religious persecution. -- Featuring: Prof. Ronald J. Rychlak, Co-Editor & Contributor, The Persecution and Genocide of Christians in the Middle East: Prevention, Prohibition, & Prosecution, Professor of Law, Jamie L. Whitten Chair of Law and Government, and Faculty Athletics Representative, University of Mississippi School of Law and Nina Shea, Director, Center for Religious Freedom, Hudson Institute, Former Commissioner on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom.
Is There Life After Football? draws upon the experiences of hundreds of former players as they describe their lives playing the sport and after their football days are over. The “bubble”-like conditions of privilege that NFL players experience while playing, often leave players unprepared for the real world once they retire and must manage their own lives. The book also reveals the difficulties affecting former NFL players in retirement: social isolation, financial concerns, inadequate career planning, psychological challenges, and physical injuries. From players who make reckless and unsustainable financial investments during their very few high-earning years, to players who struggle to form personal and professional relationships outside of football, the stories in the book put a very human face on the realities of professional football. George Koonce Jr., a former NFL player himself, weaves in his own story throughout, explaining the challenges he encountered and decisions that helped him succeed after leaving the sport. Ultimately, Is There Life After Football? concludes that, despite the challenges players face, it is possible for players to find success after leaving the NFL if they have the right support, education, and awareness of what might await them.About the AuthorJames A.
