Home of the Columbia University Sports Management Podcast (‘The CUSP Show’), faculty members Joe Favorito and Tom Richardson host thought leaders from across the sports industry as they discuss a wide array of topics.
Joe and Tom welcome Calvin Sibert, Chief Mission Officer at Learn Fresh, to explore how the NBA Math Hoops program is helping students build critical math and social-emotional skills through the power of sports. Calvin shares his journey from 20 years as a schoolteacher in Detroit to leading a nonprofit that now serves over 1.5 million students worldwide. He discusses how partnerships with the NBA, WNBA, and MLB have fueled growth, the program’s expansion into digital platforms, and why creating confidence in the classroom matters as much as academics.
