WHAT IS NASSServ?
NASSServ is the unofficial listserv of the North American Society
for the Sociology of Sport. Membership in NASSServ is
limited to members of NASSS and to members of the International
Sport Sociology Association (ISSA).
To subscribe, either your NASSS or your ISSA dues must be paid
for the current year (2002).
The list was created to facilitate on-line academic discussions and
information exchange by professionals in thesefields. Uses have
included discussions on issues of concern; distribution of requests
for help in information gathering for research or personal interest;
calls for papers; announcements of positions available, new publications,
and grant opportunities; and notices about conferences. In other words,
we encourage the posting of any item of interest to subscribers. List
discussions are initiated and sustained by NASSServ members.
HOW TO SUBSCRIBE TO NASSServ
Any NASSS or ISSA member with an internet-connected system
anywhere in the world can subscribe by sending the following
e-mail note to
Leave the subject line blank. The body of the message should say only the following:
You should not include your name or address.
This message will be forwarded to me and I will have to "approve" it.
(The reason for this is to insure that subscribers are indeed members
of NASSS or ISSA). After I approve your request, you will soon receive
an acknowledgment of your subscription.
HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM NASSServ
Members can unsubscribe by sending an e-mail note to:
Leave the subject line blank and in the body of the text write:
unsubscribe nassserv
You must send this message from the same computer you used to
subscribe to the list. You should not include your name or address.
RECEIVING AND SENDING MESSAGES
Once subscribed you will automatically receive a copy of all messages
send to the list. NASSServ is unmoderated; that is, neither the list owner
or manager censor or otherwise interfere with outgoing messages.
Thus, once subscribed to NASSServ you may send any message, however,
common sense suggests that messages should relate to the topics
pertinent to the scholarly study of sport.
Once subscribed, you can send a message to all current subscribers by
addressing your message to
Each list subscriber will get a copy of your message and you will
get an acknowledgement that the message has been distributed. Only
valid subscribers may post messages to this list. Our etiquette requires that all postings be signed. Anonymous posters will be contacted by the list manager and reminded of this policy; repeat offenders maty be removed from the listserv.

LIST MANAGER/OWNER
Michael A. Malec, of the Department of Sociology at Boston College,
manages the list, but does not edit, moderate,
accept, or reject messages posted to the list. This list is what the
members make it and to date there have been some excellent exchanges
(along with a rare bit of irritating advertising). If you have questions
or suggestions, contact me privately at
