| The Career Pathways of Chief Athletic Administrators |
| Much discussion has been on the career path and the position of the athletic director. Literature expounds on gender differences, preparation and training, and under-representation of women and minorities in the role of athletic director with a dominance of male athletic directors as well as the gaps. The purpose of this study is to explore the career pathways of becoming a chief athletic administrator of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Divisions I, II, & III institutions based on gender and race/ethnicity. |
