Athletics are a major part of the BYU community, shaping campus culture, school spirit, and the stories we celebrate together. But what is it really like to be a BYU student-athlete beyond the roar of the crowds? Join us for a student-athlete panel featuring Jack Burke (Men’s Swim), Katya Hulse (Women’s Swim), Bernardo Adam (Men’s Volleyball) and Andrew Picket (Cheer). They’ll share an honest look at the work, discipline, and challenges that come with competing at a high level while also thriving academically. Come hear how they balance training, travel, team expectations, and coursework, and what they wish more people understood about the student-athlete experience at BYU.
Part of our winter 2026 lecture series, "Sport and Society."
