| No I'm going to Princeton in the fall. It's for graduate school though.
But let me be clear: I don't have this opinion because I'm jealous of recruited athletes. It's completely unbiased and objective. Furthermore, I think my arguments ONLY hold for the very elite universities, such as the Ivies, Amherst, Williams, etc. For large state universities or small colleges that would greatly benefit from athletic exposure and don't have extremely high academic admission standards (i.e. Davidson University), athletic recruiting is surely acceptable. |
