Somehow, something tells me that the student-to-computer ratio for the rest of campus is much worse than 10-1. But then we all know athletes are way more imprtant than regular students.
They are not more important, but their scholarship demands are equivalent to that of a full-time job. These athletes bring status and attention to the school, oftentimes requiring them to miss classes.
Having student athletes with 3.00+ gpas is tough to achieve. The new computer lab will help them keep their high academic focus.
