UMBC is best known for our award-winning teaching and R1-level research -- and for being the first #16 seed to beat a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament. But UMBC's athletic programs are about much more than that one magic moment. Join Tiffany Tucker as she explores the role college sports do -- and should -- play in the general enterprise.
