- The Beauty of Three: The Relationship Between Academic Performance and Participation in Varsity Sports; 2009
- Description
- Kenneth R. Garren's paper, "The Beauty of Three," explores the relationship between academic performance and participation in varsity sports, focusing on Division I and III athletes. It highlights that Division III athletes, who receive no financial compensation, are often more academically inclined than Division I athletes. The study also examines graduation rates and academic performance across different sports and institutions, suggesting that high-profile athletes tend to underperform academically compared to non-athletes and lower-profile athletes.
