One thing I never understood is, at least when it came to engineering or STEM related field, how “recruiting the best” meant giving someone the opportunity who was the best athlete while having mediocre technical abilities a spot in a STEM degree, while giving them plenty of tutors and extra help just so they can keep up with the real talent. Now, there are some cases when people are actually good at both, but plenty of cases where that isn’t the case…. Just saying…
