#63 - College Sports, Higher Education, and Justice w/ Dr. Comeaux

The pandemic rages. Schools remain closed. But college sports? The show must go on! In the wake of a national uprising for racial justice and a tragic global pandemic, how do we advance justice for our student-athletes right now and ensure that their educational needs are being met? We’re joined by pro ballplayer-turned professor Dr. Eddie Comeaux to explore the intersections between college athletics and educational & racial justice. But first, Jeff and Manuel explore recent headlines in education including K-12 schools purchasing phone hacking technology and a debate over whether students should be required to get the COVID vaccine. ***Please consider subscribing to our YouTube channel! https://youtube.com/AllOfTheAbove *** AGENDA 0:00 - Welcome! 7:17 - Schools buying phone-hacking technology 23:05 - Will the vaccine be required for students? 38:27 - Advancing justice for student-athletes 1:10:40 - The AOTA Bump!
