"The committee hopes to use the “Nike Course” taught in 1998 as a model for this potential class. The Nike Course was a seminar course taught by three professors in different departments. The course used Nike as a means to observe the basis of international trade, economics and ethics.

“We have not made any definitive decisions, but the conversations seem to be supporting a one-year colloquium speaker series and a one-semester course where we study and ponder the issues and empower students to make recommendations for our own university in addition to leadership entities possibly including the ACC or NCAA," committee member Erianne Weight said.
