DISCUSSION 7.1 MORAL COURAGE
Jan Kemp was a former student and loyal employee of the University of Georgia
until the early 1980s. An English professor, Kemp and some of her fellow faculty
members complained to authorities that nine members of the college football team
who had received failing grades in an English class were allowed to pass so they
could be eligible to play in the Sugar Bowl against Pittsburgh. Kemp was
subsequently demoted and then dismissed. She filed and won a lawsuit against the
university, which awarded her $2.5 million for lost wages and mental anguish. The
university president eventually resigned, and the athletic director was found to
have been engaging in a pattern academic misconduct for the athletes, which led to
the university tightening its standards. This may seem as if Kemp’s “whistle
blowing,” as this action is called in the vernacular, had a happy ending; however,
Kemp’s initial dismissal and loss of career status, in addition to the death threats
from those who reviled her for intervening, haunted her; she said it caused her
much emotional turmoil to the point of suicidal thoughts.
Kemp’s actions are one example of moral courage in sport. This week, you examine
the work of Rushworth Kidder and others who explore the concept of moral
courage. You examine three key elements of moral courage: endurance, principles,
and danger. You will learn what each means in terms of moral courage and explain
how they are demonstrated in a sport example of your choosing.

KIN 606: Ethical Decision Making in Sport – Discussion Rubric Weeks 1–7
DISCUSSION 7.1 MORAL COURAGE
Jan Kemp was a former student and loyal employee of the University of Georgia
until the early 1980s. An English professor, Kemp and some of her fellow faculty
members complained to authorities that nine members of the college football team
who had received failing grades in an English class were allowed to pass so they
could be eligible to play in the Sugar Bowl against Pittsburgh. Kemp was
subsequently demoted and then dismissed. She filed and won a lawsuit against the
university, which awarded her $2.5 million for lost wages and mental anguish. The
university president eventually resigned, and the athletic director was found to
have been engaging in a pattern academic misconduct for the athletes, which led to
the university tightening its standards. This may seem as if Kemp’s “whistle
blowing,” as this action is called in the vernacular, had a happy ending; however,
Kemp’s initial dismissal and loss of career status, in addition to the death threats
from those who reviled her for intervening, haunted her; she said it caused her
much emotional turmoil to the point of suicidal thoughts.
Kemp’s actions are one example of moral courage in sport. This week, you examine
the work of Rushworth Kidder and others who explore the concept of moral
courage. You examine three key elements of moral courage: endurance, principles,
and danger. You will learn what each means in terms of moral courage and explain
how they are demonstrated in a sport example of your choosing.

from those who reviled her for intervening, haunted her; she said it caused her
much emotional turmoil to the point of suicidal thoughts.
Kemp’s actions are one example of moral courage in sport. This week, you examine
the work of Rushworth Kidder and others who explore the concept of moral
courage. You examine three key elements of moral courage: endurance, principles,
and danger. You will learn what each means in terms of moral courage and explain
how they are demonstrated in a sport example of your choosing.

KIN 606: Ethical Decision Making in Sport – Discussion Rubric Weeks 1–7
DISCUSSION 7.1 MORAL COURAGE
Jan Kemp was a former student and loyal employee of the University of Georgia
until the early 1980s. An English professor, Kemp and some of her fellow faculty
members complained to authorities that nine members of the college football team
who had received failing grades in an English class were allowed to pass so they
could be eligible to play in the Sugar Bowl against Pittsburgh. Kemp was
subsequently demoted and then dismissed. She filed and won a lawsuit against the
university, which awarded her $2.5 million for lost wages and mental anguish. The
university president eventually resigned, and the athletic director was found to
have been engaging in a pattern academic misconduct for the athletes, which led to
the university tightening its standards. This may seem as if Kemp’s “whistle
blowing,” as this action is called in the vernacular, had a happy ending; however,
Kemp’s initial dismissal and loss of career status, in addition to the death threats
from those who reviled her for intervening, haunted her; she said it caused her
much emotional turmoil to the point of suicidal thoughts.
Kemp’s actions are one example of moral courage in sport. This week, you examine
the work of Rushworth Kidder and others who explore the concept of moral
courage. You examine three key elements of moral courage: endurance, principles,
and danger. You will learn what each means in terms of moral courage and explain
how they are demonstrated in a sport example of your choosing.
