On my visit to Harvard, I was asking questions of persons who were on the cutting edge of the research they were doing---I was really drawn to that, says Brenda. When I visited, the thing that people kept telling me was,  You ll have new roommates, and every day you ll learn something amazing that they ve done. And I just thought that would be one of the greatest things I could get out of college---the interaction with so many incredible people. You can be inspired so much by their energy. <br>Lindsay majored in mechanical engineering.  I decided in high school that I wanted a degree in engineering so that I could pursue a career in prosthetic design. I figured that if I took an athletic scholarship, I would be forced to focus primarily on track. Engineering is a very difficult major, so my first thought was to find an engineering program that suited me, and then make my final choice based on the school s athletic program. Another important consideration was that my parents have always encouraged Brenda and me to pursue an academic career above all else, so when the opportunity to attend an Ivy League school presented itself, I couldn t even consider another alternative. During my visit to Brown I fell in love with the campus and the people I met. It was the most wonderful environment I had ever been in---I felt so at home there. On my recruiting trip a student said,  Brown is a microcosm of what the world could be like if we could all just get along. Harvard students may lead the world, but Brown students will change it. The profundity of that statement astonished me, it has been with me ever since. <br>To help defray the costs of attending college, both Brenda and Lindsay were able to receive academic scholarships---which was an economic necessity since neither Harvard nor Brown gives athletic scholarships. Says Brenda,  I think the explanation is they re trying to attract people with diverse qualities and talents, and it would go against their principles for them to say they re going to give an athletic scholarship as opposed to a scholarship to the best violinist in the United States, or whatever field that person stands out in. <br>Lindsay and Brenda excelled both academically and athletically attheir respective campuses, which only goes to disprove the widespread notion that great athletes cannot perform equally well in academics. Brenda remembers,  Every year after spring break the Harvard track team would run in two meets in Houston. When inevitably we were asked what school we were from and we said Harvard, people would say,  Harvard has a track team? And of course whenever our Harvard athletes won their events, everyone was just shocked. <br>Although many superstar athletes would argue that academics interferes with their training, Lindsay says that the discipline that track and fi
