Cornell Augustus Sneed

EdD in Global Sport Leadership; MA in Sport Management; BS in Criminal Justice & Criminology

Years of Graduation: EdD 2018; MA 2013; BS 2012 What is your current position and/or research?

I currently hold several positions. First, I am an assistant professor and instructional designer of sport management and e-sports courses at Benedict College in South Carolina. I am also an adjunct faculty member of sport studies and kinesiology at Tulane University. Last, I am an assistant track and field throws coach at Columbia College.

What does this position/research entail?

Why did you choose ETSU for your education?

ETSU has a strong academic program with great faculty and staff, a winning athletics program, and a beautiful campus. They offer generous financial aid packages and, in my opinion, have the best doctorate program in the world! All in all, ETSU felt like home. At Benedict College, I teach and build sport management and e-sports undergraduate and graduate courses. At Tulane University, I teach graduate sport studies courses and undergraduate kinesiology courses. At Columbia College, I coach the shot put, discus, hammer, weight, and javelin field events.

How did your time at ETSU prepare you for this career?

ETSU afforded me a world-class education that prepared me to be a leader in life, in the sports industry, and in higher education. I could not have asked for a better, more well-rounded education.

What advice would you offer current or future graduate students?

Do your best, do not compare yourself to others, and take care of your mental health.
