Dr. Erianne A. Weight, Director | Center for Research in Intercollegiate Athletics

“As someone deeply committed to advancing academic excellence and fostering the holistic development of student-athletes, I wholeheartedly support the CKA SAVE Project and its Academic Performance Enhancement program. This initiative, with its focus on academic monitoring, not only promotes scholastic achievement but also ensures that student-athletes receive the guidance and support they need to excel both on and off the field. By providing personalized academic support, this program empowers students to reach their full potential, embodying the principles of dedication, perseverance, and balanced development that we all strive to instill in our young athletes.”

Dr. Jessica Flayer, Licensed Professional Counselor

“Dr. Keith Adams was an integral member of my dissertation committee. Dr. Adams’ expertise in the inner workings of collegiate student-athletes, but also his depth of knowledge associated with the NCAA made him the perfect content expert for my research on NCAA Division III student-athletes. Given the unique culture of collegiate student-athletes, it was critical to have a committee member who understood the various dynamics that impact student-athletes. Dr. Adams not only contributed his extensive knowledge on this subject matter but also his support in the overall dissertation process. I am both happy and grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Adams as he has helped me to become the researcher I am today.”
