[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sure if all those athletes at Johns Hopkins could see this thread, they might need to change their majors from chemical and microbiology engineering/public health(horror) to..... PE education?[/quote] Yeah, my daughter has a few close friends playing D1 soccer at a different highly ranked school, and they are all pre-med, either neuroscience or chemistry majors. It's not easy--they get up for practice/training at 5:00 most days in season--but they are managing to do very well on and off the field and love their school. I don't doubt that many people choose schools or majors unwisely because they are too focused on their sports, but that is not the case for any of the D1 or DIII athletes I know. You can't assume you know what college athletics are for all kids based on the experiences of just a few kids from your local community. [/quote]
