More than Kshama Sawant seems to have gotten out of her Phd at NC State, even. Rashad McCants on his school days at North Carolina;
"I thought it was a part of the college experience, just like watching it on a movie from 'He Got Game' or 'Blue Chips,'" McCants said. "... when you get to college, you don't go to class, you don't do nothing, you just show up and play. That's exactly how it was, you know, and I think that was the tradition of college basketball, or college, period, any sport. You're not there to get an education, though they tell you that.
"You're there to make revenue for the college. You're there to put fans in the seats. You're there to bring prestige to the university by winning games."Even if you're an unpaid amateur. A student athlete.
[From NC State's Craig Newmark]
