I am interested in a sports management degree. What are some of the best sports management schools in the US?
I am currently in high school. I want to be a sports executive when I am older. I have a 3.9 GPA, and I am looking to put that into a sports management degree. I live in Michigan, but I am not interested into the University of Michigan. I am thinking about Seton Hall in New Jersey, since it is so close to New York. I haven't visited any schools yet, but I want your opinion of what the best sports management schools are in the country.

Have you looked at this listing? http://www.nassm.com/InfoAbout/SportMgmtPrograms/United_States Seton Hall would be my last choice. Actually, any school in NJ would be my last choice.

How likely am I to be hired as a paralegal with a Management degree
How likely am I to be hired as a paralegal with a Management degree?
I am a junior in college working on a Business Management major. I am considering becoming a paralegal after graduation. Would it be best to change my major or keep my major and enter a paralegal certificate program? Do employers care if my degree isn't law related? I'm in Arizona, btw. Thanks.

If you posess a degree - or any other qualification - then you'll already be ahead of the bunch when it comes to searching for vocations. My friend has a degree and he wasn't certain what direction to go with it, but he uncovered some good tips and tricks on the website in the resource box below which aided him to decide that he wanted to be a lab assistant. There is plenty of guidance on the website regarding other vocations.

You would need to take a Paralegal program because that will teach you the fundamentals of the paralegal field. Business Management does not. You may learn a few things related to law but that will not give you enough knowledge in paralegal.

Honestly, it depends. No one here can predict for you how employable you would be. I know many paralegals that have their bachelor's degree in various areas. It isn't mandatory that you have a paralegal based education. With that said, please do your research on what a paralegal is and what they do. I don't think it would be prudent to ditch your business management to become a paralegal. If it is something you are just "considering", I suggest you really do some research and ask yourself if it is worth it. I can tell you from my stand-point that a business management degree won't turn any heads in my office. Like the previous poster said, a paralegal's education is very specific. My basic coursework was family law, torts and personal injury law, criminal law, business law, elder law, civil litigation, legal writing, legal research, law office technology, etc. Very tailored to what I was going to do. You will be at a major disadvantage. Your hiring attorney might not care. He/she may just see 'bachelor's degree' and assume you're smart enough to catch on. If you do decide this is the path for you, please attend an ABA approved program. Do not get duped into 1 year certificates or online programs or paralegal institutes. At the very least, you should be attended a two year community college program. Good luck.

Your question concerns me because my 18 year old son (a high school senior) wants to major in sports management. What about sports marketing for say Nike, Wilson, etc.- or possibly work at a golf course, or any of the sports stadiums (i.e. Staples Center). Or, writing for a sports publication. What about teaching/coaching middle school or high school. What did you have in mind when you decided on sports management. My son feels it's pretty diverse, but he's is thinking he should probably just major in management with a minor in sports. Are you having difficulty finding jobs, or are they just low paying to start. Interesting in hearing about your experience.

work in a supermarket or sign on.

Banking, Finance companies, Accounting companies, Tax offices, Fed Govt, etc. That's a complex degree to go for without knowing what to do with it. Are you sure that's the field you want?
