[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article was anti recruiting athletes. As an experiment Amherst should just forgo recruiting athletes and fill all of their varsity sports with walk-ons. I suspect that they would lose very game, Donations would plummet, and school spirit would die. [/quote] This would mean that elite academic applicants would start applying ED again. They don’t now because ED is a disadvantage (majority accepted ED are athletes); they apply to lower Ivies, the Chicagos and Vandys of the world - and they get in. By the time RD comes around, they are gone. You used to find geniuses at Amherst and Williams; those days are gone.[/quote]
