Our presentation on 20 November 2011 looks at newspaper coverage of the University of New Orleans Privateers athletic program. Following Hurricane Katrina, UNO saw a precipitous drop in enrollment that devastated many parts of the University - including the athletic program. A founding member of the D1 Sun Belt Conference, UNO athletics deliberated a move out that eventually found them competing as a D2 school. Our presentation focuses on the different representations of voice during the process, finding that news coverage of the proceedings tended to favor administrator voices over students and fans, along with other trends. Analyses are limited to a small sample (n = 45 newspapers) that over-represent recent coverage (2009-2011). Future research and extension is suggested.
