<p>The majors of athletes are all online as you noted. I looked at the hockey players’ and about half of them were in AEM, a good chunk in hotel, and a few sociology majors. That was about it. If you want to do some sort of statistical analysis, then tell me what the 3 most popular majors among athletes are. </p>
<p>Face it, there aren’t too many recruited athletes (ie athletes who can get in with lower scores) in engineering or hard sciences. Those majors (with the exception of bio which is split b/w CAS and CALS) happen to be in endowed colleges.</p>
<p>I gave you hockey! There are more hockey athletes in contract colleges than endowed colleges. But I wasn’t aware that cornellbigred.com posted majors for Hockey! Beat me, but maybe I was misreading something (checked again and could not find–so if you can show me the link to where more than three hockey athletes actually put down their major within CALS, I’d be much obliged. And I’m not saying this in a condescending way, I’d really like to know b/c I can’t find it!)</p>
<p>The only team (out of the four I looked up) that specifically stated majors was Track and Field.</p>
<p>Also, I don’t feel its right to just use majors to prove that athletes choose the easiest majors! For, yes you can point out that the plurality majority of students on a given team are in the “easy” AEM major, but that’s not really saying much (for the main major can mean that only 10 students out of 100 chose AEM, and another major did not add up to challenge the 10 students in AEM!) </p>
<p>But, going with the only team that looks to be reporting specific majors (Track and Field), I can give you over 30 athletes in hard majors within engineering (and what isn’t hard within engineering?), as well as science majors within A&S and CALS that add up to being more than the AEM athletes!</p>
<p>yo stop talking about athletes, the discussion you two are having is besides the point of this thread. can somebody answer the ACT question for NYU that I asked?</p>
