Why is it a problem that students get tutoring? My college makes tutoring available for every single student. Not everyone takes advantage of the program, but they all can, for free. And it improves everyone's experience of their education. Class discussion is vastly improved if everyone is caught up on their homework. It doesn't surprise me that student-athletes make use of tutoring, given how tightly packed their schedules tend to be. And the fact is, tight schedules often make for better students, since greater focus and self-discipline is required.

Heck, I will even tutor a student if I'm asked and have the time. My one rule is I won't tutor someone who is actually in one of my classes. But any other student who asks, if I'm available I'll usually say yes. The simple fact is the most enjoyable thing about my job is talking to students. I'll read a draft of a paper, I'll help them figure out a math problem, I'll argue with them about Kant or Aristotle or St. Thomas or Adam Smith.
