It's interesting that this college obsession for sports isn't just at the big state / football schools, but has trickled down to top tier universities and liberal arts schools. Many students continually get admitted in the area I grew up in for things like field hockey / crew / lacrosse / volleyball etc., while students qualified far more academically get rejected.

Glad that whole process is long behind me, and I wonder if sports are continually going to be prized as time goes on.
