Concussions in collegiate athletics can affect student-athletes both on the field and in the classroom. As policies are made to outline return-to-play decisions and timelines, this article will make the case that return-to-academics should also be included and follow a step-wise protocol. Complete cognitive rest is a cornerstone of concussion recovery and slow reintroduction to academics should precede return-to-play. The college structure allows for student-athletes to begin small doses of cognitive activity after the recommended complete cognitive rest. It is recommended that return-to-academics involves a team approach to help the student-athlete navigate the responsibilities of course work while healing from a brain injury.
大学体育赛事中的脑震荡会对学生运动员在赛场和课堂上的表现都产生影响。在制定有关恢复比赛的决策和时间安排的政策时，本文将论证恢复学业也应被纳入其中，并遵循逐步推进的方案。完全认知休息是脑震荡恢复的基石，恢复比赛之前应先逐步缓慢地重新开始学业。大学的体系使学生运动员在建议的完全认知休息之后能够开始进行小剂量的认知活动。建议恢复学业采用团队协作的方式，以帮助学生运动员在从脑损伤中恢复的同时应对课程作业的任务。
