Do you consciously think about where you sit in the classroom because of how it contributes to your stereotype as an athlete? In this episode, Marina and Classye James discuss how the student athlete infrastructure recently exploited contributes to the negative stereotype of athletes in the classroom, and how it further stigmatizes minorities of race & gender. They also discuss how when done right, the student athlete infrastructure contributes to a well-rounded college experience for all. Later in the episode, Classye shares how she juggles getting her MBA from Santa Clara while a Program Manager at Cisco Systems and running her own business, Shakeout, a consulting program for athletes transitioning out of sports.
