Columbia, Mo. - Tomorrow morning (Saturday, August 19), Missouri's very own Ed Stewart (Asst. AD for Student Services) will be appearing live on CNN in a panel discussion concerning college athletics.

The show is called Page One with Nick Charles, and it involves a live panel discussion revolving around current issues in athletics.

This week, host Nick Charles takes a look at the student-athletes who play big-time college sports such as football and basketball. Are they treated differently than the typical student, particularly when they get into trouble? And is that a good or bad thing? Along with Ed Stewart, other guests include former coach and current ABC analyst Terry Bowden, and Sam Eifling, who is a student journalist at Northwestern University.

The show airs on CNN Saturdays at 10:30 a.m. central, and replays on CNN/Sports Illustrated Saturdays at 11:30 a.m., 6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.

For those in the Columbia area, CNN is shown on channel 32 on AT&T Cable (formerly TCI Cablevision), and on channel 28 on Capitol Cable. Neither system carries CNN/SI.

If you subscribe to DirecTV, CNN is shown on channel 202, while CNN/SI is on channel 205.
