[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the impact of this on college admissions outside the tiny number of "right" schools that seem to grad so much of the limelight? Is it really a systemic problem with American higher education? Or a problem that is limited to a few highly sought after schools? [/quote] It’s mostly prestigious schools, but it may end up spreading to football factory schools, where athletes who can barely read are recruited to play football, even though the would never be admitted otherwise. If all colleges just stopped waving academic requirements for athletes, it would solve a lot of problems. The rich wouldn’t be able to use that loophole to get their B+ students into Stanford. The athletic D- students wouldn’t be able to use it to get into Alabama. College football is a fattened dove just waiting to be hit by a massive scandal.[/quote]
