	Cool Fact: In the SEM 460 Senior Seminar in Sport and Entertainment Management, Program Director Dr. Bob Bunnell challenged his class of 24 students to come up with a community service project that the class could do this semester. After much discussion, the class chose to collect gently-used sporting goods and sportswear from Neumann and several surrounding elementary and high schools to donate to the Chester Boys and Girls Club. The class was able to collect 273 usable items, ranging from hockey sticks to soccer shinguards, baseball and softball bats, shorts, jerseys, lacrosse sticks, and all different types of sports balls.

The Sport and Entertainment Management major is designed to prepare students to blend general management skills with the specific demands of managing sports organizations. Sport and Entertainment Management majors acquire a strong foundation in management, finance, accounting, marketing, communications, ethics, and legal aspects of business. Specific courses in Sport and Entertainment Management provide students with an understanding of the role of sports in society, the role of management in sports, and the opportunities to apply their knowledge in sports-related organizations. Students supplement classroom teaching with a variety of practical experiences through field trips and by working in sport management settings through completion of a Cooperative Education placement. Students in Sport and Entertainment Management gain both the knowledge and practical experiences which are necessary for their future success in a variety of sport and entertainment management careers.
