From the University of Chicago’s formative years as a member of the Big Ten Conference to its current status as a charter member of the University Athletic Association, Chicago Athletics has counted numerous distinguished scholar-athletes among its ranks. Among those Chicago scholar-athletes are 11 Rhodes Scholars -- including four since 1996.

Most recently, Nick Juravich was selected in 2006. Captain of the cross country and track & field teams, Juravich served as president of the Undergraduate Order of the C.

2001 recipient Brad Henderson was a two-time All-UAA men's basketball player who helped lead the Maroons to back-to-back NCAA Division III tournament appearances, capped by a spot in the national quarterfinals in 2001.

The most recent female athlete to win a Rhodes Scholarship, Erin Bohula (1999) was a starting shortstop for Chicago softball teams that won 34 of 53 games her final two years.

"Very few – if any universities – can claim the extraordinary number of varsity athlete Rhodes Scholars the University of Chicago has developed over the recent past," said Director of Athletics Tom Weingartner. "This reflects the core values of the Athletics Department and the remarkable balance so many of our varsity athletes achieve both in the classroom and on the playing fields and courts. Our students can and do engage in extensive travel and first rate competition all while receiving one of the great liberal arts educations in the world."

In 1904, track & field athlete Robert Henry was included among the first Americans to receive Rhodes Scholars.

Chicago also boasts 1910 recipient Edwin Hubble, a basketball player who later became a distinguished scientist for whom the Hubble Space telescope is named.
