[NU Sports] FW: interesting column by NU alum Darren Rovell

[Dennis W. Brandt]

It should not be a university's responsibility to see to it that its 
students have spending money.  As to not helping athletes with academics 
after their eligibilty ends, I would need to see something more than 
anectodal evidence that is occurring.  Even if it is, they're seniors or 
grad students by then and should have figured out how to study.  They have 
no spring practice to consume their time and, if they're not turning pro, no 
requirement to hit the gym either.  Either you treat students as adults or 
you don't.  If a university must hand-hold students through four or more 
years of education, then it's time to return to a system that includes 
parietal hours.
