[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, if you allow yourself to look at the bigger picture, having a school that focuses on sports is better for the entire school. As others mentioned sports=donor money. You can't avoid this connection and its importance to have an alumni network available to help YOUR child find a job, provide athletic centers for YOUR child to exercise, etc. The thing that is so amazing about colleges is finding your way and what is enjoyable to you as an individual. This could be sports, this could be greek life or just for academic pursuits but lumping athletics at a school as some sort of pariah is incredibly short-sighted. It also seems you are making some big decisions on behalf of your child that are only a reflection of your beliefs.
