Book excerpt: The main goal of the Faculty Perceptions of Intercollegiate Athletics Survey is to examine professors' beliefs about and satisfaction with intercollegiate athletics. The investigation also identifies faculty members' primary concerns about intercollegiate athletics and gathers preliminary data on whether they would join campus-based initiatives aimed at ameliorating these concerns. Further, the survey assesses whether professors think such activities would lead to meaningful change on their campus. The first part of this Report provides background information on the development and administration of the Faculty Survey. The second part explains the data analyses and highlights key findings. Three appendixes are included: (1) Survey Instrument; (2) Tables; and (3) Figures. (Contains 5 footnotes, 8 figures, and 48 tables.) [This report was prepared for the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics by the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education, The University of Michigan.].
