Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 4268290, member: 628"] Do athletes get credit for practicing their sport? I find it weird if they don’t. Again, my wife was in wind ensemble, jazz ensemble, marching band, and the like. She got credit for all of that. It was considered part of her “coursework” in pursuing a degree in music. She also got a partial scholarship for music and had to audition to get into the school of music consider that recruitment and an “offer”. The reality is that every one of recruited athletes goes to school for their sport. It’s not to say that most don’t take advantage of the degree options offers to them. But they choose that school primarily, if not entirely, due to sports. It’s strange that we still pretend that’s not the case. [/QUOTE]
