@EddieComeaux@UCLALawReview@DrUJayakumar After reading this article, I think it is unfair to other students with different backgrounds. Admissions policies that favor white applicants will only make schools homogeneous without diverse groups.
@WeissJorda13708@abhornUCRedu I think there would be loopholes to help white athletes. According to the article, 71% of white student-athletes at Ivy League colleges. This shows that schools are biased in providing opportunities to white or wealthy students. @KatryaLy#ucr50
Despite having race-neutral policies in admissions, there is still a racial bias against schools like Harvard University, creating more advantages for white and wealthy students. Sports are also meant to provide opportunities for these wealthy students. #ucr50@KatryaLy
@annette_are@TA_ED50 I agree with your point. The image rights should belong to the athletes themselves. The athletes helped the school gain benefits with their outstanding performance, and they should also be compensated. @KatryaLy#UCR50
NCAA had big control over athletes' names, likenesses, and images. I think this is unfair to athletes, everyone belongs to themselves and athletes have the right to use their own images to earn profits. @KatryaLy#ucr50
@msmit220 @TA_ED50 I feel shocked that women were denied admission to university before Title IX. Title IX is really helpful to women that can receive equal education and opportunities. #ucr50@KatryaLy
Title IX helped women get equal opportunities in sports and education as men. In the athletic department, the majority of female athletes are white. Does racial inequality also exist among female athletes? @KatryaLy#ucr50

@SamVar6as @TA_ED50 I agree with you! Cross-racial interaction is beneficial to student-athletes. Black athletes experience racism in campus communities that can leave them feeling unaccepted. #UCR50@KatryaLy
Racial interaction is important for college athletic students. Increasing the number of students of color can build interracial friendships, and positively impact student outcomes. Racial discrimination will negatively affect the mental health of people of color @KatryaLy#UCR50
@Danielaaa_g7@KatryaLy I agree with you. The expectations of schools and coaches for them to win on the field will create more pressure on them and affect their mental health. #ucr50@KatryaLy
When college athletes base their scholarship and self-worth on their performance on the field, they create a lot of mental stress that can lead to drug use, alcohol abuse, and eating disorders. This is very harmful to the health of college athletes #ucr50@KatryaLy
@edisonpark333 @KatryaLy I think the mental problem is also important for athletic students. Schools can provide them with psychological counseling and guide them when they encounter difficulties. Also, schools can give them enough free time to integrate into college life. #UCR50@KatryaLy
Athletic students have to perform better in sports or fields and maintain good academic standing. They have a lot of pressure on study, competitions, and mental stress about winning and losing. What can schools do to help them balance academics and sports? #UCR50@KatryaLy
@littlebunnyw@KatryaLy I agree with you, I think schools have to balance the funds between academics and sports. It is not fair for other students who more focus on studying. #UCR50@KatryaLy
I noticed that the highest-paid public employees are sports coaches in college. It is surprising that coaches’ salaries are higher than those of college professors. Does the school focus more on athletics than academics? Is this fair to college professors? @KatryaLy#UCR50
@cortez85218@KatryaLy@KatryaLy I agree that there are lots of myths about women in sports. Women faced many barriers when they participated in the sports competition. There are still some doubts about the power of women. #UCR50
This article shows nowadays the number of female student-athletes, coaches, and conference commissioners is increasing. Women get more chances to participate in sports and become leaders.
NCAA established the "Principle of Gender Equality" based on Title IX, and "Principles of Nondiscrimination" to respect female athletes. Those principles provide more opportunities, scholarships, and better facilities for female athletes. @KatryaLy#UCR50
