🏈 Writing for @statnews.com, @solomonctryls.bsky.social Student Research Fellow Trevan Klug and 2023–25 Senior Academic Fellow Yaron Covo argue that sports leagues should do away with injury reports to better protect athletes’ private health information. www.statnews.com/2025/09/21/n...
Pro sports leagues should do away with injury reports
NFL injury lists began after a high-rolling gambler learned five players on one team had the flu. It’s time to change the system.

Many thanks to Case Western for organizing a much needed symposium about free speech, DEI, and fed pressure in higher ed. Inspiring to hear from so many wonderful panelists. I’m working on a paper about whether DEI offices offer/ed anything beyond accommodation services to students w disabilities.
