N .Tmmndmy, Oct. IS, gt« . JOCKS Continued from page 2 the news that worry students at Centennial Hall at Minnesota. When the te*m was housed in the same dorm two years ago, recalls dorm President Larry Jamieson, "players would hang out in the lobby and make comments to girls. A lot of girls were scared to go through the lobby. It was intimidating to guys .too." Adds Sociology Professor Dr. John Clark, "the rape trials (of the basketball players) turned off a lot of students, and well it should. But I hope the students will see it as fairly isolated." Berkeley's Edwards attributes such tensions to schools that recruit and then abandon athletes to the difficulty of hand¬ ling intense pressures — ones most students never need confront — at too young an age, and to simply being out of place on campus. "The whole situation overwhelms," he says of athletes nationwide. "The majority of them are black, underclass kids going to an upper middle class, white campus. •ns: They are going to school in a whole different culture. They find themselves not in the same situation they grew up in and have known all their lives." Two other Berkeley researchers, Brenda Bredemeier and. David Shields, found in an October, 1*985. study of California college athletes an inverse relationship between "moral reasoning" and aggression. Bredemeier and Shields found that play¬ ers rated as "most aggressive" by their coaches were "less mature" than other players who, in turn, were rated "unaggres¬ sive." Whatever the reasons, Davis figures the way to ease whatever tensions may exist is by stressing "integrity" in college athletics, taking better academic care of players and perhaps disciplining the athletes them¬ selves. "One group says if a student athlete is in a brawl of some kind, he shouldn't be on the team. Kick him off," Davis says. "Another will say, 'well, boys will be boys.'" Edwards instead wants to "establish programs dealing with the alienation and discontinuity (in the athletes' lives). Look at.the problems. (Ask) what are thc aca¬ demic deficiencies. Break up the athletic dorms." The tcnsioiTat Minnesota, of course, arose when officials broke up the athletic dorms.
