There was a professor at Michigan—I think her name was Hazel Ladd—who was a fierce UofM sports fan. I think she taught physics. The word was that male athletes got A’s, other men got B’s, and women got C’s.  (My auto-complete just wrote “women got Caught”!)

He resigned in 1961 because the Provost pressured him to give a grade of C+ to a varsity football player who was failing his class. When he left MSU, he took a job working for the Department of the Navy designing torpedoes and missiles. We moved to Maryland.
