“It's been a fight for me. I never knew I would continue to be on scholarship until each August. But that motivated me to train even harder and get my shot better. Just keep working. It's my last year now. I'm a senior. We're winning. Everyone is getting love. I've had a great time.”
John Sharper
“You're allowed to have 85 on scholarship come August. It doesn't matter how many you sign as long as you're at 85 come preseason practice. Believe me, it's been thought out. I did get a degree. I know how to add and subtract.”
Randy Edsall
“Christie came to me and said she wanted to throw and wanted to get a scholarship. I knew a little about the javelin, and because of her dedication, I learned a little bit and picked the brains of the best in the country so I could help her out.”
Colleen Rosensteel
“The last year or so, we knew she was going to get a big scholarship. Word got out to colleges that they needed to look at her. (Auburn) was there in 10 minutes and offered her everything.”
Pam Wilkins
“The educational system of a country is worthless unless it [revolutionizes the social order]. Men of scholarship, and prophetic insight, must show us the right way and lead us into light which is shining brighter and brighter.”
Carter G. Woodson
“This woman in love with scholarship intends, to be sure, that woman should acquire learning: but it must be for the purpose of developing her intelligence, or raising her heart to serious things, not of widening her field of ambitions, dethroning man”
Christine de Pisan
“The ceaseless, senseless demand for original scholarship in a number of fields, where only erudition is now possible, has led either to sheer irrelevancy, the famous knowing of more and more about less and less, or to the development of a pseudo-scholarship which actually destroys its object.”
Hannah Arendt
