With backgrounds in reporting and banking, Cohan has invested much time in writing about wall street industry an subjects alike. He breaks down the Duke lacrosse case in his book "The Price of Silence." Issues of higher education, sexual assault, race, etc arise in the case and he simply expounds on them.
"student athletes often exempted from attending classes and their bad behavior often overlooked"
"black woman and her alleged attackers were privileged young white men"
"issue of how universities balance the corrupting influences of the prominence and profitability of their sports program"
I believe the incorporation of the race spectrum along with higher education and sports will add a new dynamic to my research that I have yet to heavily incorporate thus far.

I had brought my copy of this book to class last time, but you were not able to attend. You really have to look at the book itself (and not just a review of it) when writing a lit review to get credit. Please revise once you get the actual book.
