[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Engineers can make 6-figures, but a lot of desirable jobs require different and non-academic skills. For example to be a CEO you need to manage teams and motivation all while overseeing layoffs. A board member needs to be able to pull the right people from his or her network to solve a difficult problem quickly. A lot more of this is learned through sports than books. [b]In fact, statistically, career success is more closely aligned with team sports success than academic success.[/b] My kids are dropping their team sports for other interests. They are also strong academically. I know that they will be losing out on valuable life lessons and skills that come from sports.[/quote] I would love to see the studies that support this, if they exist. [/quote]
