This year's social media session, entitled "Social Media and the Student-Athlete," took place on Wednesday, Jan. 16 from 4-5 pm Eastern/3-4 pm Central/2-3 pm Mountain/1-2 pm Pacific.
This is the description of the one-hour session:
Imagine the national evening news interviewing every student-athlete on the topic of the day. Well, welcome to social media, in which the lives of student-athletes can be treated like unending press conferences just a click away from that national microphone.
What can campus leaders do about it? Some NCAA member schools answer with monitoring and restrictions; others with education and empowerment. Join this session to learn what works best for your institution.
