The U.S. Education Department has released data from a where-are-they-now study of people who graduated from public high schools’ career- and technical-education programs in 2004 and 2006. The study, made available today on the Web site of the department’s National Center for Education Statistics, looks at the students two years after graduation in terms of their employment, income level, area of postsecondary study, if any, and relationship between high-school courses and either college or a job.

If, however, one clicks the graphic to “Government support” (“state, municipal, federal and other government appropriations made in support of the operations of intercollegiate athletics”), the University of Florida–the first school to win two BSC national championships, and the school to give us, for better or worse, the great proselytizing QB, Tim Tebow–is in a class by itself. Florida took in almost $2 million in “Government support.” In second place is Oklahoma State. Stillwater, last time I checked, is on neither the East nor West Coast. Tied for third are Oregon and Oregon State, universities in a West Coast state, but Eugene and Corvallis are hardly what one thinks of as coastal. (Re the “U of O”: Apparently Phil Knight’s Nike riches don’t cover the tab, which includes about two hundred football uniform variations–all of them, by the way, really, really ugly.)

Athletics and academics need to be separated on the college level.
