Profs seek limits on sports costs
Concerned about the growing
cost of sports, Pacific-10 Confer
ence professors are circulating a
resolution, developed by Universi
ty Senate President James Earl, that
calls for university leaders to limit
the growth of athletic spending.
The faculty senates at the Univer
sity of California at Berkeley and
Arizona State University have ap
proved versions of the resolution. A
vote of the University of Oregon’s
University Senate will come
Wednesday, and the remaining Pac
10 faculties are expected to consid
er the issue before the end of the
school year.
“I want the professors of Ameri
ca to speak up and say there’s a
problem here in American educa
tion that has to be addressed, and
it’s up to the presidents to do it,”
Earl said.
Earl, president of the University
senate, said college sports have be
come such a huge business empire
that many universities have been
unable to control them. He said es
calating spending by athletic de
partments threatens the core aca
demic mission of colleges.
At the University, the athletic de
/ --:
partment runs a deficit of about $2
million a year, a shortfall that is
made up from the University’s gen
eral fund.
Earl said he hopes that getting all
of the Pac-iO academic senates be
hind the resolution will provide
some cover for university presi
dents, who are under pressure from
alumni and fans to expand sports
programs in spite of cost concerns
and faculty objections.
It is hoped that other conferences
will follow the Pac-lO’s lead.
At ASU, faculty members voted
73-0 to approve the resolution. Pro
fessor Doug Johnson, president of
the ASU Academic Senate, said
while the athletic department at
Arizona State isn’t allowed to run a
deficit, faculty remain concerned
about spiraling spending.
Some university presidents share
those concerns. University Presi
dent Dave Frohnmayer, the Pac
lO’s representative to the National
Collegiate Athletics Association,
said it’s time for universities to con
front the issue.
“I think we obviously have to do
what we can to see that spending is
in line,” Frohnmayer said. “We
don’t want to get in a situation
where we’re looking at escalating
deficits.”
But he said efforts to control
sports spending will have to ad
dress potential conflicts with an
titrust laws, which limit what uni
versities can do as a group to
restrict salaries or set spending
caps.
The NCAA recently lost an an
titrust lawsuit over coaches’
salaries that could cost the associa
tion tens of millions of dollars.
Earl doubts the resolution will
stop projects already in progress,
such as the $80 million expansion
of Autzen Stadium. He also knows
that his resolution might not be a
hit with sports fans.
“I think a lot of people out there
tend to think of the University as a
sports franchise because athletics is
our primary tool for public rela
tions,” Earl said. “What the fans
have a hard time remembering is
that athletics has nothing to do
with education. It’s a business
we’ve gotten into on the side, and
it’s not supporting the educational
mission.”
