Figures. Everything’s a scam nowdays folks. Probably even this “announcement” that the secret list is being abolished, is a scam.
If this is REALLY true, they can kiss their basketball and football competitiveness good-bye.
Yes, that is exactly what I mean.
Oh, and forget speed and jumping track and field events as well.

Pardon me while I curb my incredulity.
I find it highly improbable that such a list could remain a secret for ten years.
After all a good number of students will have become associate professors in that amount of time. Some of those students would have been tutors for athletes.
Real simple: all sports need to be removed from all taxpayer-supported schools at all levels.
so how many of these “courses of interest” could athletes take?
I would bet that similar lists exist in all other D1 schools.
Sure they are.
Jeez - and at my college, the athletic “guts” had to be related by word of mouth....
Just goes to show that these “elite” schools have certain advantages after all.
And the benefits of theses classes are worse than minority/womens studies?
wow..a lib bastion does something I like
be like Vandy
their players actually have to go to real school
Did they get rid of the list or the classes..?
The truth is there are lots of classes on state supported
campuses that don’t need tenured, pensioned, professors,
period. Athletes or no. Drama/voice/theater arts/race or
gender studies/all could be dropped
or added as an extra course (which are paid for by students
apart from their regular tuition)
As far as athletes are concerned, someone on this thread
mentioned that the sports should be dropped. A great idea.
Let college teams go back to students who happen to be
good at sports, rather than athletes who can fake a real
education.
To get a football scholie at Stanford requires about a 3.5 GPA, and a 3 part SAT of about 1900. Compare this to your school, college fans.
That there is a slate of 'courses of interest' represents the biggest scandal in Stanford football history-- which is no scandal at all. The Cardinal's NCAA infraction history is totally clean.
Still, the Cardinal were Orange Bowl victors, and finished ranked #4.
If any of you have a school with better football, a cleaner program, or better academics, chime in.
I didn't think so. Go Cardinal!
One Summer at Oregon I took Production Workshop. Come to every class and help build and paint sets for the drama department and get four hours of “A”. The place was full of horny girls and few straight men. I was there so much they hired me. By the end of the Summer I had my “A” and a nice paycheck...not to mention some really great memories.
Rowle Tyde!
California is allowing RACIST motivated policies in their schools??
