Thanks to @one1ofeach and @Pharmingturtles ! I hope @Pharmingturtles is right that team activities can mean a lot of things. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, BUA is requiring team sports specifically - which is what surprised us. Students may want to compete in debate, science fairs, math contests, etc. it seems unusual to single out sports competitions… Does anyone know if there happens to be some flexibility at BUA?

I am also wondering if the out-of-state sports competitions @one1ofeach mentioned were also mandatory for all students. I can understand those could be worth it if sport is one of your strengths, but otherwise it seems mostly time-draining.
