[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] But you notice all the examples are athletes who went to Harvard / Stanford / MIT which I kinda think has more today with it than them being athletes.[/quote] It’s a “yes, and” situation. They are being recruited out of the top schools, but what these elite firms want, out of all the potentials they have at the top schools, are the athletes. We are reliably told by DCUM anti-athlete posters that the athletes who go to Ivies, etc, are losers who can’t hack it at these schools, but apparently these elite firms disagree. [/quote]
