[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 1008915, member: 2957"] I taught at a D3 school. Grants don’t exist there. Students take part in athletics as part of the college experience… not to get a grant. CPJ described Tech as basically a service academy. Limited curriculum, good kids, lots of discipline. It isn’t like 99% of the schools in D1. Here’s how USMA describes athletics: “The United States Military Academy has a saying that “every cadet is an athlete.” The military school model emphasizes athletics because they promote teamwork, communication, fitness and wellness, self-confidence, respect for self and others, put winning into perspective, and foster academic success.” I think that’s right. It’s PART of the college experience. It’s not the sole reason. [/QUOTE]
