I'm glad that Kim went on to pursue her masters in an area she was interested
in- and I hope no one got the impression that I was against anyone pursuing
their masters in athletic training! That is not what I meant at all. I have
several friends who did earn their masters in athletic training, and it
definitely helped to expand their knowledge and help them excel as athletic
trainers!
Good luck Kim on your masters work, and I wish you, and everyone else, much
success!

Here's another thought, regarding athletic trainers doing research- in which athletic training positions can research be done? Consider this- who has the TIME,...
Mary- I think you have a good point, however, if you are interested in doing research I'd suggest that you partner up with an ATC who is in the college setting...
