Here is the paragraph about A-Tech:

A-Tech, or Athletes and Technology, is an academic support program geared
to university athletes.  The program employs technology as a way of
enhancing students' academic work while also addressing the problem of
time.  A CIC has been created in the Jamerson athletic building.  Also,
about 12 Powerbooks will be available for loan to travelilng athletes--so
students don't fall behind in coursework while on the road.  Originally,
A-Tech had a service-learning component, however, how this component fit
with the overall scheme was never really clear.  Nevertheless, the A-Tech
board wants to retain the community service/service-learning dimension for
the time being.

I you need any more information, there was an article about A-Tech in the
Arts and Sciences Newsletter.
