About the Journal
EST. 2015
The Journal of Higher Education, Athletics, Labor & Innovation (JHEALI) is devoted to becoming a premier higher education resource for scholars and practitioners. JHEALI strives to publish scholarship on a range of topics that employ various methodological approaches to investigating intercollegiate athletics's role within higher education institutions and related communities. JHEALI invites submissions from all scholars and practitioners, as our mission is also to provide early career researchers and authors from underrepresented groups with an opportunity to showcase their innovative, relevant, and timely research in the rapidly changing fields of sport, labor, culture, and higher education.
This journal includes research investigating National Collegiate Athletics Association participating member institutions, National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics institutions, community colleges, pre-college, and other organizations and associations that support college sports. Volumes 1 and 2 of the journal were published between 2016 and 2024 under the initial title, the Journal of Higher Education Athletics & Innovation. The scholarly articles included in the JHEALI will be Anonymous Reviewer/Anonymous Author reviewed empirical and theoretical studies in intercollegiate athletics that constitute significant contributions to the literature. We encourage submissions focusing on the following areas: methodological, political, cultural, social, economic, psychosocial, policy, innovative, and organizational issues in intercollegiate athletics.
We are accepting submissions and publish bi-annually (twice every academic year) with the potential for additional issues, including special editions.
JHEALI provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global knowledge exchange. All content in JHEALI is freely available without charge to the user or their institution.
