Well that's a tad non-creative.

Are Yale students really called Yalies?
Ryan Donato was a current student at Harvard and was one of the stars for the US hockey team this year in PyeongChang. I say "was" because I think he may have since left in the past few weeks to turn pro? I don't follow hockey as much as I should.
It's not easy, but it can be done. I applaud Nathan's commitment to higher education at the school of his choice, if this is true.
I think Polina Edmunds is full time, but at least for her Instagram account look more concentrated on university life than FS now.
Meryl / Charlie took online courses in Michigan U. still not graduated.
Rachel Flat gave up skating.
Shizuka graduated in bachelor's degree in social sciences from Waseda, but I think she studied online. (Waseda it seen very prestigeus)
I think Bates also graduated from Michigan U.
Yes. although not always with fondness.
( spousal unit, Yale '70. )
Yuzuru is also studying in Waseda, online courses of course. He's physically in Canada most of the time.
I'm wondering which major Nathan chose.
Marrying smart people +5 GOE.
I think that song NEVER ENOUGH is so appropriate for so many including Nathan. Everyone wants it all - to be loved, to be smart, to be on the top of the world athletically, to have endorsements and skating shows. Nathan could have it all. This is exciting. Of course, one wonders how great he is competing against young people who have modified or limited their schooling for compmetitive skating. I just think Nathan seems to be driven and smart and his family seems to want him to have it all so it might happen.I wouldn't bet on that.
If Nathan is planning attend Yale, I guess it means no more medals. Good news for Shoma, Yuzu and Boyang.
I'd be interested in a discussion of how skaters in general have manged with university, be it in tandem with figure skating or doing it before/after their figure skating career l. Do many manage to do it full time like what Nathan (seems) to intend?

Maybe while they were at Worlds he asked Max for some tips, since Max graduated magna cum laude in three years. :yes:

I thought they were called Eli's. Though I haven't the foggiest notion why I'd remember something like that. Wikipedia says either an Eli or Yalie. Yale was named after the merchant and slave trader Elihu Yale.
