Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- In this oral history, Keith Sparks (AB Human Biology, 1984) speaks about the supportive community and opportunities he found at Stanford both as a student and staff member in the Department of Athletics. He mentions his involvement in establishing the Lambda Nu chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity, as well as his participation in a variety of other student groups such as the Stanford Gospel Choir and The Fellas. He shares his belief that college athletes should be paid and talks about his efforts to establish the Historical Basketball League, a startup league that provides college athletes with an alternative pathway to the NBA.
