NCAA Schools Urged to End Beer Ads on Broadcasts

NCAA Schools Urged to End Beer Ads on Broadcasts: "The Campaign for Alcohol-Free Sports TV today urged 54 of the 64 colleges and universities sending teams to the NCAA men's basketball tournament to commit to ending beer advertising on college sports games. The campaign, which is led by the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest and is backed by an impressive array of coaching greats and organizations, says that associating drinking with college sports makes a mockery of athletic and academic values and makes it harder for officials to combat alcohol problems on college campuses."
