Abstract | The purpose of the study reported in this article was to investigate high school teachers' perceptions of special privilege given to student-athletes. Additionally, researchers sought to explore teachers' perceptions as to why these privileges exist and who controls them. Qualitative data were collected from the teaching staff (N = 40) at one high school in southern California. Findings revealed that athletic privileges exist and that most teachers had a favorable attitude toward those privileges. In addition, coaches and administrators were identified as direct advocates for athletic privileges. Theoretical and practical implications of athletic privilege are discussed. (As Provided). |
