"College sports is a numbers game, full of so many calculations--batting averages, free-throw percentages, BCS and RPI scores--that keeping them all straight can be a full-time job for a sports program. Now, the National Collegiate Athletic Association has put a new number on the table....The number is 925--and it represents the magic number in the NCAA's multiyear effort at putting the 'student' back into 'student-athlete.'" (BLACK ISSUES IN HIGHER EDUCATION) This article examines new NCAA standards and reforms "aimed at reinvigorating the student portion of the student-athlete equation."
