MAIN SITE ENTRANCE OPTIONS:

1. 1. RESEARCH - Nike Corporation contacted me (David Boje) on 16 September, 2000 to submit a research proposal. 45 academics sent a 125 page proposal in October. In November it was suggested we expand the proposal to the entire Athletic and Campus Apparel Industry.  If you want to volunteer for one of the study groups or write comments to the proposal please do so. Here is proposal.

2. 2. The GLOBE Project is progressing.  This is a project to list locations of some 720 athletic and campus apparel subcontract factories around the world. The project began with a focus on Nike; only about 40 of which have been disclosed by Nike and another 12 have been disclosed by NGOs (if you have old browser use this entry path). We are expanding the project to the entire industry.

3. 3. CAMPUS APPAREL - I am about to release a report on New Mexico State University apparel sourcing. Is our logo made in a sweatshop?  I am looking for volunteers to start a campus USAS group as well as WRC.
