BOULDER — Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott paid a visit to Boulder on Wednesday, meeting with representatives from Colorado’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee to discuss time demands on student-athletes.
Under Scott’s guidance, the Pac-12 has been one of the nation’s most proactive conferences in advancing and addressing concerns for the welfare and well-being of student-athletes. Already, the conference has implemented procedures and rules regarding such issues as cost of attendance, four-year scholarships and increased medical care; and last year, the Pac-12 became the first — and still only — conference in the nation to add student athletes to the league’s official governance structure.
