NCAA is a completely seperate entity from the universities. However, DCI is structured where DCI 'is the corps themselves'. Therefore the metaphor used is correct.

Oh, how to make this clear...

If you want to compare drum corps vs. college football:

DO

  • DCI vs. NCAA
  • individual drum corps vs. college football teams

DON'T

  • DCI vs. college football teams
  • NCAA vs. individual drum corps

I get that. NCAA is not the university football teams. But do you get that while one corps is not DCI, it is true however that DCI actually 'is' the cooptetive collctive of all member corps? That distinction is a major difference as it applies to the metaphor.

What are the legal differences or issues having Corps people being on DCI board? Antique Automobile Club of America is nonprofit and board is made of members of clubs that are part of AACA.

understand NCAA not a good comparison but AACA vs DCI sounds close

The AACA gets its sponsors for events, too. IIRC, most are related to the ownership of vintage automobiles, some others are firms like Wineries, living the high life kinds of items.

you do realize the schools are represented in the rules making committees right?

it's not like Emmert sits there and decides on a whim to make up rules. Kinda like Dan doesn't sit there and just make up rules for DCI.

 

facts...just a point and click away

The National Collegiate Athletic Association is a member-led organization dedicated to the well-being and lifelong success of college athletes.

 

 

WHO MAKES THE RULES?

Member representatives serve on committees that propose rules and policies surrounding college sports. Members ultimately decide which rules to adopt – everything from recruiting and compliance to academics and championships – and implement them on campus.

 

 

WHAT DOES THE NATIONAL OFFICE DO?

The 500 employees at the NCAA’s Indianapolis headquarters interpret and support member legislation, run all championships and manage programs that benefit student-athletes.

Governance

Our governance structure consists of legislative bodies – made up of volunteers from our member schools – that govern each division, as well as a group of committees that set association-wide policy.

These committees manage topics affecting sports rules, championships, health and safety, matters impacting women in athletics and opportunities for minorities.

The NCAA Board of Governors is our highest governing body, bringing together presidents and chancellors from each division to discuss issues important to the entire NCAA membership. All association-wide governing bodies are charged with upholding and advancing the Association’s core values of fairness, safety and equal opportunity for all student-athletes.
