[quote=Anonymous]I went to an HYP years ago. I was surprised to see all the athletic recruits. I saw surprised to see the lower standards - although to be fair in many cases they were much lower. Then I saw how they had to work in college to perform athletically and academically. Now 25 years later I see that they are some of the most successful alums in my class. The discipline, the team work, the ability to balance paid off in the real world. My kids are good athletes but not that good and not that disciplined. I don’t know their efforts are any less impressive than training up for an extra 100 points on the SAT. These schools aren’t looking for an arms race on stats. They are looking for future leaders - broadly defined - and in that regard the athletes have as good a chance as any of their classmates [/quote]
