Using the same database that informed "The Shape of the River", the authors analyze data on 90,000 students to determine how college sports affect educational values. They demonstrate how athletics influence the class composition and campus ethos of selective schools, as well as the messages that colleges send to prospective students, their parents, and society at large. 64 figures. 70 tables.
