| My husband made a comment similar to Bluedog's, and last night I counted the number of OOS athletes. I counted 459 (including the whole fencing team of 57 because that roster didn't say where they came from).
I think the admissions web site said they enrolled 3895 freshmean last year; 18% is about 700. If you take the athletes off, it leaves about 241 (6%) for non-athletes. This methodology has flaws. I don't know anything about athletics and recruiting, but it seems unlikely that all 400+ OOS students that happen to be on an athletic team were recruited. Even so, maybe my daughter should take up lacrosse-- I think the whole team is OOS. |
