especially the willingness of the
kids to do what we ask.
“They realize that when
they’re expected to do some
thing, it’s just part of being an
Aggie athlete. We’re going to
have problems. If we didn’t have
problems, I wouldn’t have a job.
But we want to minimize those
E roblems and we want our prob-
;ms to be, ‘Can we make a C or
can we make a B’ as opposed to
going the other direction.”
During the fall semester, all
freshman athletes and upper
classmen with GPRs below 2.0
were required to attend study
halls twice a week. About 100
athletes took part in this, with
freshmen attending study halls
on Tuesdays and Thursdays
and upperclassmen attending
on Sundays and Wednesdays.
This semester, however, only
athletes with GPRs below 2.0 are
required to attend study halls.
Hunt said 47 scholarship
athletes (out of 200) currently
are taking part in study halls.
Sherrill’s mandatory class
attendance policy, which began
in the fall for all athletes, also is
required now for athletes with
below-2.0 GPRs.
Hunt said the athletic tutor
ing program, which costs about
$40,000 each academic year,
makes available more than 100
tutors in the areas of chemistry,
biology, history, political scien
ce, sociology and mathematics.
The tutors include undergradu
ates, graduates and instructors.
