Fair Pay to Play Act: End of Amateurism?
Get PDFThe NCAA has seen its fair share of controversy concerning player compensation, whether it be through lawsuits such as the O’Bannon case, former NCAA athletes complaining of hunger during their time in college, or even NBA star LeBron James’s documentary “Student Athlete.” However, no extreme policy changes have emerged from the endless scrutiny of the NCAA’s rules of prohibiting its student-athletes from receiving compensation from the use of their names, images, and likeness, among other things. The NCAA argues compensation would capsize amateurism by turning student-athletes into professionals, putting an end to amateurism in the NCAA all together.
But would it

Breed Specific Legislation: Are Breed Bans an Effective Tool in Preventing Dog Bites? A Case Study on the Town of Castle Rock, Colorado and their animal ordinance.
Get PDFBreed Specific Legislation (BSL) is a law passed in certain states and municipal governments to address dog attacks by certain breeds. This law prohibits breeding and ownership of certain breeds that are considered “dangerous”. Restricted breeds that fall under BSL are Rottweilers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Pit Bull Terriers, Chow Chows, German Shepherds, and Doberman Pinschers. Due to BSL, dogs on the restricted breed list are unfairly judged based on breed and appearance, as opposed to behavior.
Breed bans are currently in effect in Denver, Colorado and other towns throughout the state, however, the Town of Castle Rock which is just south of Denver decided to make history and repeal their pit bull ban after 26 years of enforcement. Using a mixed method of qualitative data analysis with dog bite for the Town and quantitative data analysis with interviews and surveys taken by residents of Castle Rock and surrounding towns, I examined how the Town Council of Castle Rock came to vote to change their animal ordinance which included repealing their pit bull ban and adopting a two-tiered behavioral based dangerous dog or potentially dangerous dog ordinance
Racial & Identity Profiling Advisory Board Annual Report 2019
Get PDFCalifornia\u27s Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015 (RIPA) is truly groundbreaking legislation - the first of its kind and scale in the United States. This law requires nearly all California law enforcement agencies to collect, maintain, and analyze demographic data on all detentions and searches, thereby codifying the recommendation of the President\u27s Task Force on 21st Century Policing which aimed to improve understanding and create evidence based policies through this data collection. The Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board (Board) was created by the Act to shepherd this data collection and provide public reports with the ultimate objective to eliminate racial and identity profiling and improve and understand diversity in law enforcement through training, education, and outreach. The Board\u27s mission is enhanced by the diverse perspectives and backgrounds of its 19 members, as well as by the vibrant discourse brought to board meetings and subcommittees by members of the public and the law enforcement community. Together, the Board and stakeholders share the goals of increasing public safety, improving law enforcement-community relations, and bolstering trust through collaboration, transparency, and accountability.
In its second annual report, the Board has built on the foundation established by its inaugural report released January 1, 2018. Specifically, this report aims to enhance the transparency of the stop data collection process by providing the public with detailed information on how the data is collected and submitted and how the Department and law enforcement agencies ensure the integrity of this data. This report also provides recommendations that can be incorporated by law enforcement agencies to enhance their policies, procedures, and trainings on topics that intersect with bias and racial and identity profiling
