When
I first began this class I thought to myself, how deep can we really go with
the topic of sport and gender?
After a few weeks in the class I found that I was mistaken. Just yesterday I was explaining to my
roommates the truths about people that are transgender and their differences in
sexuality. Before I took this
class I was accepting of homosexuality and differences in peoples sexuality but
I had a limited perspective on the topic all the same. If I had a choice in the layout of our
sport management classes I would consider breaking this class into two classes
simply because the topic was an eye opener.
Aside
from learning about sexual orientation I learned many other things from this
class. I was extremely interested
in how our MLB teams recruit players from overseas and pay them less. These are the kind of topics that make
me happy I paid for the class. I
say this because this is interesting information that I will take with me
rather than forget about by next semester. That being said, MBL recruiting is not the only thing I will
take from this class. I enjoyed
our discussions each class and was always surprised how active my fellow
students were in relation to each topic.
Overall I took a great deal from this class and enjoyed my semester in Sport
and Gender 4250.
