[quote=Anonymous][quote]You make it sound like athletes somehow get in with lower academic standards which is simply not the case. Unlike at Division 1 colleges, very few athletes get into Amherst or Williams if their academics don't measure up. The vast majority of recruited athletes are in the NESCAC A band with a handful in the B band and even fewer in the C band. There are no athletic scholarships so "dumb jocks" simply don't apply there in droves. There are also many non-recruited walk-ons in the various teams. Athletics adds to the diverse, multi-dimensional communities at Amherst and Williams. [/quote] Please quote the portion of the post that suggested athletes have lower academic standards.[/quote]
