Sport: A Personal Experience
Thursday, 17 Jan 1974 at 1:00 pm – Pioneer Room, Memorial Union
What is it like to be a college athlete: to be a circus freak or to be a legitimate student? The question will no doubt be discussed by the panel of ISU student athletes assessing the personal impact of their sports experience. Representing a wide variety of intercollegiate sports, the panel will investigate the motivations and rewards involved in athletics. Panel members include Leslie Haggerty-Tennis, Peg Neppel-Track and Cross Country, Dan Fletcher and Jerry Moses-Football, Dave Carrithers-Swimming and Gregg Barcus-Basketball. The discussion will be moderated by INA committee member, Doug Robinson.Part of the National Affairs Series
