[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 895765, member: 1640"] The ideal of sound mind in sound body, understanding yourself as a physical creature, the pursuit of beauty in mastering an athletic feat, learning wisdom by discovering your limits….the list goes on. As universities developed they began to see the additional advantage of having a diverse curriculum which included different kinds of learning in different fields. In the modern era universities that pursue an ideal thousands of years old sought greater diversity in the student body to reflect a rich and diverse learning experience. Athletics were a big key to this. The problem is that much of the modern impetus to win in large revenue sports is pushing more and more to segregate athletes from the student body, which cuts against the ideals of the tradition. But that’s another discussion. [/QUOTE]
