How about the following point as a follow-up to
this previous post?
In no other country’s university system, after all, does sports play anything like the central role it does in American academic life. Men do not go to Oxford to play cricket; the Sorbonne does not field a nationally celebrated soccer team. Even in the most sports-mad countries, sports is sports and education is education. That’s a better system.
Makes perfect sense to me.
Katha Pollitt has a simple bottom-line in that essay:
Cancel the season. Fire everybody. Get real about rape. Grow up.
Yep.
