SD BOR Athletic Report

[el_presidente]

The new board of regents report on athletic academics is online on the BOR site

http://www.sdbor.edu/theboard/items/...emicReport.pdf

I haven't read through it yet but noticed it was posted today. Quick read from the tables toward the end says SDSU had the highest athletic GPA in SD at 3.02 and the highest graduation/retention rate at 68%

The financial report came out in December last year so I will keep watching for that one.

Re: SD BOR Athletic Report

Interesting read. Appears the myth of the dumb athlete is smashed, at least is SD. And, predictions of the SDSU move to DI hurting academics is double smashed, annihilated, kerblastificated.

One suprise to me was the high proportions of athletic participation at the smaller schools. I assumed the percentages would be higher relative to the large schools. I just didn't expect NSU to be near 25% athletic participation.
