UNC may have a bigger problem to deal with then athletics. According to articles out here,over half the students involved in the "Shadow Curriculum" were non-athletes ,so now they're looking into the "academic integrity" of the institution.

According to articles out here,over half the students involved in the "Shadow Curriculum" were non-athletes ,so now they're looking into the "academic integr ity" of the institution. Right now there are, let me call them, admin/academics at other institutions sweating bullets waiting for the light to turn their way. We are used to athletic departments self-reporting which we eventually hear about. These type of academic situations will quietly be swept under a rug. "Do not pray for easy lives.

I'm sure we can all recall some at OU that are borderline. Obviously not as bad as these classes, but joke classes are certainly on every campus.

I sprained my ankle that quarter playing basketball, so I spent each class just keeping score with a pitcher of beer.

I took it Winter or Spring Qtr '78. The curriculum essentially was how to hook up components and make your stereo work (turntable, amp, tuner, speakers). It was an athlete friend in fact who told me about the class. Lot of really big and tall dudes in the class......

Maybe O.U. should bring this class back.
