[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ You are so insecure. Nothing in PP’s post suggested athletes are not academically qualified. PP is correct that there is a HUGE divide at Amherst between athletes and non-athletes - it has a reputation for being the most divided campus socially in the NESCAC for this reason.[/quote] There is a very significant social divide between athletes and NARPS (non-athlete regular person) at both Amherst & Middlebury. And it gets nasty sometimes. [/quote] This social divide is frankly inevitable when teammates practice for hours daily not to mention in competition with other schools in their conference. This teamwork is frankly one of the reason why Wall Street likes to hire student-athletes. Whether this divide is "significant" or "nasty" is debatable, but certainly not limited to any NESCAC school (Bowdoin has over 40% varsity athletes for example) or other top colleges or universities for that matter.[/quote]
