players, winners and losers. Academics–not sports–must be

given first priority. Students who receive athletic scholarships

should not be exploited; they should be treated like other

scholarship recipients. Recruitment should be responsible,

academic standards should be maintained, and promises

made to athletes should be realistic.

In short, the scholarship athlete should be treated like

any other exceptional student on campus who loves his or her

subject and takes joy in the process of learning. Athletic

programs clearly benefit educational institutions, and athletic

scholarships should certainly be a part of any college system;

however, the focus of sports programs should expand to

encompass the personal enrichment of the whole student.

Shifting the focus of athletics away from winning will

ultimately benefit not only college athletes and the scholarship

programs that support them, but also the colleges themselves.
