Reform Movements Settlement House Workers --Jane Addams, Hull House in Chicago (1889) Young, socially-conscious lawyers Investigative Journalists -- “Muckrakers” --Lincoln Steffens, Ida Tarbell, and Upton Sinclair Small businessmen Wanted reform not revolution Desire to make businessmen more responsible for problems

Anthony The NCAA was founded in 1910 to protect young people from the dangerous and exploitive athletics practices of the time.
