KANSAS CITY, Mo. – NABC Executive Director Craig Robinson and Tommy Amaker, Harvard head men’s basketball coach and Co-Chair of the NABC Committee on Racial Reconciliation, have released the following statement on the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics’ “Achieving Racial Equity in College Sports” report.
“We commend the Knight Commission on the release of its Achieving Racial Equity in College Sports report. This publication makes clear that college athletics and higher education at large have much work to do in order to achieve true equality for minority student-athletes, coaches and administrators. The contents of the Knight Commission’s report should be required reading for all of higher education, and its thoughtful, action-oriented recommendations offer a framework for progress on the critical topics of diversity and inclusion.”
