But there are often hidden costs not covered by scholarship money. Or, the swimmer may be getting a full ride but the school is division two or three and perhaps academically inferior. With all of these drawbacks, it would seem not to be such a difficult task to keep our swimmers in Canada. The Western conference's desire to offer entrance scholarships to deserving athletes does seem like a good solution to the problem. The institution, corporations.
People have a minimalist approach.
But many coaches feel there have to be strict guidelines. And students should have to disclose all the moneys they're receiving. This will keep the rich schools from being able to grab all the Curtis Mydens. These are the concerns of the Western conference's main opponent in the debate, Ontario, which staunchly opposes the idea of allowing athletic scholarships. Once students are on campus, Ontario will probably be in favour of scholarships-but not to entering students.
