Sports are traditionally big business, but much of that has come to a halt due to to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this episode of Catalyst, Jeremy Jordan, associate dean of Temple University’s School of Sport, Tourism and Hospitality Management, details the ripple effect that the pandemic has had on the sport industry. He outlines how the pandemic has affected just about everyone in the realm of sports, but he also offers optimism for the future. Sports are a fabric of our culture and they’re not going anywhere. As Jordan explains, the industry has found several ways to innovate over the last year and as it continues on its road to recovery, now might be the perfect time for students to explore working in sports.
