Rating College Football Teams Off the Field (1/2)
Today we have the second of two reports about the education of college athletes in the United States. Millions of Americans follow college sports, mainly football and basketball. Schools with good teams are under pressure to win. But now they are also under pressure to do more to make sure their players get a complete education.
On January seventh, the two top college football teams will play in New Orleans for the national championship. Ohio State, rated number one, will play number two Louisiana State. Privacy laws limit what schools can say about academic performance. Still, we wondered how these two universities support their football players off the field as well as on.
Stan Jefferson directs player development for the football program at Ohio State University. He says all the players can receive the same academic help. This includes, in their first year of school, required meetings of what is known as the Interactive Study Table.
This is a program in which players meet with a tutor before classes to discuss their work. Stan Jefferson tells us that players also meet with counselors who make sure they are progressing toward their degrees.

今天,我们介绍两个关于美国大学运动员教育的报道中的第二则报道。上百万的美国人都喜欢大学体育运动,主要是橄榄球和篮球。有好球队的学校有赢得比赛的压力。但是现在他们也迫于压力要做得更多以保证他们的运动员可以完成学业。
一月七日,两个顶级橄榄球队将在新奥尔良争夺国家冠军。排名第一的俄亥俄州将和第二名的路易斯安那州对决。隐私权法律限制大学谈及关于他们学业表现的事情。我们仍然想知道这两所大学如何像在球场上一样支持他们离开球场的橄榄球运动员。
Stan Jefferson在俄亥俄州立大学指导橄榄球活动中运动员的发展。他说所有的运动员都能接受同样的学业帮助。这包括在他们大学的第一年,要求所谓的交互学习的会议。
这是一个运动员们在课前会见导师讨论功课的活动。Stan Jefferson告诉我们运动员还要与学业顾问见面,这些顾问确定他们在获得他们的学位方面正在不断进步。
