    I believe Neb was a leader in providing Student Athletes with academic counseling and services to ensure they were headed down the right path. I also seem to remember that the whole thing was headed up by a Catholic nun, right?

    My nephew was an Academic AA when he was at Texas A&M on the golf team. They had golf training facility that besides all the golf stuff had rooms with computers and everything the kids needed to study, do projects etc...study and then take a break to hit a few balls! :)
