Make all state supported schools from high school to university accountable to make certain all students who play sports have at least a 3.0 GPA
Why is this important?
In terms of state supported colleges, all students who are giving a sports scholarship must hold a 3.00 GPA or lose the scholarship. If we the taxpayer are supporting these students then they should be held accountable to graduate with at least a 3.0. It has been said that sports scholarships are the only way a poor student can afford higher education. What about the poor student that scores high on the SAT's . Perhaps they are being held back because someone can catch a football or hit a baseball but not graduate.
