In a meeting Friday, the Faculty Council voted not to pass a resolution that would eliminate the admission of athletes who are projected to have a first semester grade point average lower than 2.3. Jay Smith, a history professor, proposed the resolution in response to the publication of the Wainstein report in October 2014. Smith said the resolution was meant to establish a standard for the recruitment of student-athletes. “It is just distressing to members of the athletic reform group that the faculty as a collective has not been able to muster the will to take a stand on an issue that was integral to the scandal,” Smith said.
