If you swam in college

My granddaughter has several colleges interested in her. She is very excited, however, there is a naysayer in the family. Every time my granddaughter brings up the subject in his presence he makes comments like, "Swimming isn't your life," or "It is a waste of time because it won't get you a job." If she says, "What if I want to be a swim coach?" He says, "Sounds like a hobby, not a job." My question, what doors did swimming for a college/university open for you after graduation?

  • 3) it will not affect her studies. I think swimming actually affected my studying positively. I was so busy there was no room to procrastinate. During the times we were swimming less (like the spring) I had a tendency to get lazy.
