Division III athletics is a very good thing. As an athlete, I was able to participate in an activity which I loved, and did not have to be quasi-professional to do so. It taught me how to balance my time between academic and non-academic pursuits. It also taught me to deal with competition. Even if you are not an athlete, it benefits the campus in bringing in talented people in non-academics. And, non-athletes are given a chance to try out and make the team.
