Honestly, being a former collegiate athlete myself, I think there’s always going to be some degree of “divide” between athletes and non-athletes just because you spend so much time with your team in season. That said, my son’s an athlete at Vassar. He has a good chunk of non-athletic friends, and his friends on his team. Do the teammates eat together at the Deece? Sure. It’s right after or right before practice. Do they hang out together? Yep, but not exclusively. And, they support other athletic teams and friends in the arts. From what he says, he has a healthy balance between the two on his team, and as much as he loves his team, he’s looking forward to the season ending so that he can take part in many of the other activities on campus. Vassar is a truly special place Good luck to your daughter!!!
