Final Thoughts

I have really enjoyed blogging about the topics that we discussed in class. Like I said in my presentation I did not like to talk in class so this game me a chance to express my opinions. It was nice just listening to other peoples arguments and just sitting there thinking about the topic in class. From just listening I could hear both sides of the argument. Then if I did not know a lot about the topic I could then go home and look up more information. I also like receiving feedback on my blog, so everyone that wrote a comment thanks.

I really enjoyed the articles that dealt with topics that I might come across in my future career. Someday I hope to be a Athletic Director at either a high school or small university. Reading these articles and watching the videos helped me look at how different people handled these situations. The main ones that we talked about is Title IX, males playing women's sport and also women playing men's sports. I never really saw where a women wanted to play a men's sport or a men wanted to play a women's sport in my high school. Everyone just followed to regular gender roles of men play men's sports and women playing women's sports.

I am planning on continuing to blog after this class is over. I enjoy giving my opinion on different sports topics. It is hard to find people to talk to about sports, so this way I can put my opinions on the Internet and have other people read them. Also after I get a job in the sports field, I plan on blogging about my experiences for students in this field can read. I figured this could help students learn more about the field. It is hard for students to attend different events when speakers come to talk about their field. This way they can read the blog whenever and then also ask questions.
