My professor for a class on Sport and Technology recently showed our class the website for an organization called U Diligence. In essence, athletic departments can contract U Diligence to protect their athletes and themselves. Many student athletes fail to see the ramifications of their actions online, as do many other teenagers and young adults in our country. However, for student athletes, especially those in high-profile programs, those ramifications can be exponentiated. Have a look at the disturbing images on U Diligence's website if you'd like to see what I'm talking about. The class had a very interesting discussion on whether or not what U Diligence does is right, and whether or not it's necessary. It's a thought-provoking topic, so think about it and let us know your thoughts if you'd like.
