We investigate the influence of intercollegiate athletic participation on grades using data from the U.S. Naval Academy. Athletic participation is an endogenous decision with respect to educational outcomes. To identify a causal effect, we develop an instrument via the Academy’s random assignment of students into peer groups. Instrumental variable (IVs) estimates suggest that sports participation modestly reduces recruited athletes’ grades. This finding has implications beyond college, as we also show that grades—not athletic participation—are most strongly associated with postcollegiate outcomes such as military tenure and promotion rates.

The article explores one of the key issues currently confronting collegiate athletic administrators, that is, how to equitably distribute opportunities to participate in intercollegiate athletics between male and female students. After reviewing relevant legal principles, the article examines selected gender equity initiatives proposed or adopted by colleges and universities and by various governing athletic organizations. In conclusion, the article presents a “Three-for-One” proposal designed to provide athletic administrators with a practical and achievable plan for satisfying the athletic interests and abilities of both sexes on campus.
