This session is intended for sport management professors. Its purpose is to give faculty members insight to what students expect from the sport management professors. This is relevant because it will enable faculty to understand, guide and advise students as they enter the sport management arena. The importance of this understanding will afford professors the opportunity to bridge the gap between student preconceptions and the reality of sport management in the global market.
