<p>I dislike threads such as this on CC. The thread title, “College Athletes At It Again”, only serves to perpetuate the all to common stereotype of student/athlete as thug/under qualified applicant. For the most part, CC is about elite college admissions, and most athletes at elite schools bear little resemblance to these minor league ruffians.</p>
<p>“Ivy Athlete is Great Student, Too” wouldn’t be a newsworthy story, but I’d rather see a few of those along with the “Football Players are Bums” stories.</p>
