[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fundamental question is should schools have sports teams? If you answer Yes, then admissions has to show preference to athletes because of unique skill sets required and limited number of candidates. [/quote] You could also ask should schools have women. If yes then preference is shown to half of the class being women. Continuing … should the school have a band, if Yes then preference is shown to students that are good at play instruments. Etc, etc, etc. You wonder why the 4.5 GPA kids that have spent their whole High school just focused on academics get rejected. Schools don’t want a student body of one dimensional people.[/quote] Recruit the same number of athletes as band members and you have a deal. [/quote] Band is considered a “team” and they get a certain number of scholarships just like a team.[/quote]
