[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read this article today and thought it would make DCUMs anti-athlete posters hyperventilate and pass out. https://www.businessinsider.com/endurance-sports-college-athletics-are-shaping-the-future-of-vc-2025-1[/quote] This is a social networking effect far more than a skill development one. Which is why the same thing has been observed for generations to an even larger degree with fraternities/sororities. Turns out almost any kind of group activity commitment can yield networking benefits. [/quote] You didn’t read the article. These aren’t people who knew each other ahead of time. It’s a resume item the forms are explicitly looking for: they want college athletes. That’s not networking, that’s a resume impact. [/quote]
