In Stanford's scandal's wake, athletes' academics questioned
By

While Stanford University's athletic department was recently implicated for encouraging athletes to take easy classes through a "Courses of Interest" list, Dartmouth's athletic department does not maintain a list of easy class offerings for in-season Big Green athletes, Athletic Director Harry Sheehy said in an interview with The Dartmouth. The athletic department will never compile such a list, Sheehy said, adding that it would be very unlikely for a list to be distributed from any athletic department in the Ivy League. An anonymous member of the football team confirmed that a physical list does not exist in an interview with The Dartmouth, but went on to say that the team works together to determine which courses to take during the season. "It's more of people talking to each other and telling each other what's easy," he said.
