Y’all did not read what I said. They had every kid going to college sign because they did not want to recognize the athletes and not the regular students. They do a signing day and every senior sits down and signs something. I had to bite my tongue because that is as snowflake as it gets. Let’s not offend anyone. I agree athletic and academic are equal. Never said they were not.
I do not believe a kid who walks on should act like they are on scholarship so crucify me. I believe you should be honest in you or your child’s awards or lack there of. Does not make them second class citizen but just be honest.
If you want to recognize scholars do so but not just because athletes do it.
