This book was released on 2016 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African American male student athletes enrolled in community colleges have not been adequately investigated in the empirical literature for factors related to academic experiences, success, and departure. This research study extends the literature on African American male student athletes by examines factors that influence academic success. Specifically, this study explores factors that shape the educational experiences and outcomes of African-American male student athletes from a community college in an institutional environment setting where African American male student athletes constitute a significant population. In this study, I evaluate the following research questions: What are the experiences of African American male student athletes in a large urban public community college? What factors influence educational outcomes, including persistence and completion, for the African American male student athletes in a large urban public community college? The data source for the study is African American male student athletes who attend a California community college in Southern California. The data collection procedure consisted of interviews with African American male student athletes. Data analysis consisted of the following steps: transcription of interviews from the digital audio recordings, code transcript interviews and the identification of patterns in coded data for thematic analysis. Results indicated that for a majority of the African American male students, whom I interviewed, specialized academic and cultural programs, family and mentor support, and a desire to improve the lives of their family members were the principal reasons for persisting. By contrast, results that emerged from interviews with staff members showed a concern about factors that affect African American male student retention, the lack of social integration skills, and existing cultural barriers, all of which negatively affected the persistence of African American athletes at the community college.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the experiences of African American male former community college student-athletes who succeeded on their educational pathway. The study also sought to identify the supportive services African American male former student-athletes reported as contributing to their academic success. For the purpose of this study, educational pathway success meant the student earned either a certificate, an associate degree, or transferred to a four-year educational institution. Tinto's theory of retention served as the study's theoretical framework. A qualitative methodological approach was used involving a set of 11 interview questions with 16 African American male student-athletes, all of whom graduated from Michigan community colleges. Community colleges were chosen because the literature review showed high percentages of African American male student-athletes enrolled in community colleges are a vastly understudied population. Nine themes emerged from the analysis of the data. The data revealed the academic barriers participants endured while enrolled in community college, and the influence of family, teammates, coaches, faculty, and staff on their academic success. It is believed that, by understanding those factors that most influence an African American male student-athletes success in community college, both administrators and others who have a stake in this population's understand the persistence that leads to the participants' completion. Future research might include interviews with both student-athletes, coaches, and academic advisors. Further, a study that employs a mixed-methods approach may be conducted to provide more additional information pertaining to factors of success and perceptions of belonging within this important and unique population.

Book excerpt: The purpose of the following study was to provide insights into the successful academic journey of BMSAs and how they are overcoming barriers within post-secondary institutions. The factors that contributed to the attainment of a Baccalaureate degree by BMSAs within California State University Sacramento (CSUS) was examined, along with an analysis of the relationship between their persistence and institutional/societal factors was investigated. A mixed methods approach was utilized to collect the data for the study; surveys were distributed to for BMSAs that graduated from CSUS with a Baccalaureate degree between the years of 2000 and 2016. The quantitative data was analyzed to determine if there were significant relationships between their persistence and several institutional and societal factors. Interviews were conducted with former BMSAs to identify common themes pertaining to the factors that contributed to them attaining a Baccalaureate degree from CSUS. From an analysis of the data, the researcher identified six themes (self-imposed pressure, handling business, like-minded people, family support, knowing that they care, and the SARC) that were major factors in BMSAs that qualified for this study achieving academic success and graduating with a Baccalaureate degree from CSUS. Additionally, the researcher was able to reveal that there was a significant relationship between the persistence of BMSAs in achieving a post-secondary degree and the following variables: the academic support from coaching staff; the academic support from athletic department personnel; and the interactions with faculty.
