“Nina is an amazing team member. She's fearless when it comes to taking on new challenges - big or small - she's always eager to dive in and work toward a solution. When she joined PreSales Academy, she quickly took full ownership of the admissions, marketing, and career services functions, and has done an excellent job running them. She's demonstrated tremendous leadership in leading webinars/presentations as well as running workshops with graduates. Nina is diligent in her work and always finds ways to go above an beyond for the team. It's been a pleasure working with Nina and I'd be lucky to continue to work along side her throughout my career.”

This literature review delves into the documented social and academic experiences of Black student-athletes competing at the highest level of competition in the most high-profile, revenue-generating sports (most typically defined as football and men’s basketball) for university athletics in the United States. Black student-athletes as a whole have lower graduation rates than their fellow student-athlete peers, and social commentators and researchers have suggested that they are widely and uniquely exploited by the institution of collegiate athletics. Issues such as “dumb jock” and “dumb negro” stereotype threats, inequitable social treatment by peers and professors, insufficient academic support for athletes, the imposed social isolation of athletes on campus, and the roles of institution type and student identity development are discussed in how they affect the experiences of Black male student-athletes in college, specifically those participating in revenue-generating, high-profile sports. Likewise, the dual nature of the identity of student-athlete is analyzed, and the various hardships and social stigma faced by these competitive males in football and basketball on college campuses are explored in depth.
