Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or work:
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
“Lazybones, sleepin’ in the sun, how you ‘spec’ to get your day’s work done?”
—Johnny Mercer (1909–1976)
