Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 2262485, member: 127"] These stories just seem to confirm the old adage that the toughest part of an Ivy League education is getting in, not staying in. I would think that a student athlete not interested in academics would definitely go elsewhere. If an athlete gets injured and has to take a redshirt year which allows them to graduate before their normal eligibility ends, Ivy League rules don't allow the student athlete to play athletics there for their 4th year of athletic eligibility. That's why Shonn Miller, a Cornell basketball grad who lost a year because of injury, had to transfer.
