[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand the connection between student athlete and career unless the student is seeking a career in athletics?  Unless seeking a sports career, it’s Lille asking what type of career can my son who participated in the Greek System look forward to?[/quote]

Connections and “tribal nepotism” in Ivy athletes.  Go back and read some of the posts about Ivy athletes getting their companies funded and jobs offered by alumni.  [/quote]

So weird…Playing for an ivy is like DIII, big whoop…[/quote]

Yeah, more student than athlete…which is a good thing!  But, you are right - it’s just an activity, not an accomplishment to play a sport at that type of school.  No one is impressed with the athlete part, just the student part..so why the post??[/quote]

Agreed. Why didn’t the OP ask about major and career? If my daughter participated in drama but was a chemistry major, and I asked the same question, I would think a career in science, or any other area applicable to the MAJOR![/quote]

Unless they were Uber good at the sport, then the response would make more sense.  OP, which sport, and was he/she/they any good to make a career of that.  Otherwise, maybe a career associated with the major?  Any other interest or hobbies?[/quote]
