Graduate Assistant
A graduate assistant serves in a support role at a university, usually while completing post-graduate education.

Rather than receive hourly wages, GAs are often remunerated in the form of a stipend. Assistantships provide experience for graduate students, increasing their future employment options. This is especially true in U.S. college sports, in which a graduate assistant position is very often the first step on a coach's career ladder.

Bowl Games
In North America, a bowl game is one of a number of post-season college football games that are primarily played by teams belonging to the National Collegiate Athletic Association, NCAA's NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision, Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). For most of its history, the Division I Bowl Subdivision had avoided using a Playoffs, playoff tournament to determine an annual national champion, which was instead traditionally determined by a vote of sports writers and other non-players.
