... slipping tainted money into athletes’ hands – primary males playing football and basketball – so it has given up”(1). What this all means is that the NCAA can’t find a way to figure out how the athletes are getting money while attending school. Instead of trying further to figure out how the athletes are earning money they have made a new rule so that it appears as though the athletes are making money by having jobs outside of school even though everybody all knows this is untrue.
Looney continues to say how desperately sad this is for college sports. “To fold one’s ethical tent is perfectly in line ...

showed that to get an education he had to act the exact opposite of an
educated man. He had to rely upon his own primitive brutality to insure
his education. He was then mocked by having to recite a speech he was to

scholarship had for the future students.
After getting into school, a simple job turned into an unforeseen
disaster that would change his life forever. He was to chauffeur Mr.

Themes In Hawthorne's The Minister's Black Veil
... that is
disturbing in its implication, namely that we can never hope to know each
other's true selves. The themes in the story are suggested by the veil-
symbol, the tension between the minister and the community, and the use of
pro-Freudian psychological analysis.
The symbolic significance of the black veil lies in the physical
and mental barrier that it creates between the minister and his environment,
and the guilt that it expresses. Many people believe that the face provides
information about a person's underlying characteristics and, therefore,
about his or her probable behavior. Thus, by wearing the v ...

Summary Of Gulliver's Travels
... in Gulliver's perspective
during the journeys, revealing true qualities and ineptitude of people.
The imagination and insightfulness of Swift are amazing.
On his first voyage, Dr. Lemuel Gulliver visits the land of
Lilliput, supposedly in the South Pacific. In this unusual world, all
people are merely six inches tall. The tallest trees are only six feet
tall, and the largest building, the palace of the king, was tall enough for
Gulliver to leap over, although he would not dare do that, for he must be
very careful not to crush anyone or break the buildings. The country of
Lilliput is in the process of a war w ...

Walker, seeing only the possible wealth that he could achieve, bargains with the
devil and finally reaches an agreement which he sees to be fair. Tom does not
see the danger present in bargaining with such a powerful force for so little
gain. There is a note of humor present in the narrative, which adds to the
sense of danger that is present making deals that one does not intend to keep.
Commenting on the story, Larry L. Stevens notes that "This tale,..., comically
presents the results of valuing the dollar above all else." This story does a
very good job of conveying ...
