[quote=Anonymous]I swam D3 and turned down D1 swimming scholarships. I absolutely valued the fact that I could quit anytime. I would have loved my college of choice without the swimming. I have good athletic children and would NOT want them on an athletic scholarship for all the reasons the OP stated. The parents that never played a sport and push their 9 yr olds in an effort to save themselves a buck so they can drive their fancy cars and fund their fancy vacations rather than saving for college freak me out. . . I also happen to value a liberal arts education and they don't tend to be found at big Division I programs. Loved D III sports. Good balance with other interests and still very serious about your sport. No one plays or coaches at the college level if they're not committed to their sport. [/quote]
