Max Aaron may have been the 2011 men’s junior figure skating champion, 2013 U.S. national champion and 2015 Skate America champion. And sure, he’s a top contender for a spot on the U.S. team in next month’s Winter Olympic Games in PyeongChang, South Korea.

But all his grandfather wants to know is when he’s going to machan a leibedik—Yiddish for “make a living.”

Before he can do that, though, Aaron and many other elite athletes face a big hurdle: Finding time, between all that training — hours in the gym or pool or on the ice — to earn a college degree.

Aaron, who is 25, has been working on it — for years — balancing his grueling training schedule with classes in finance at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs.

“Yulia is a star. Some stars shine for a long time, while others will shine too bright and burn out. She lit up everything. I want to wish her a wonderful life, which she deserves, for she is a very good, very smart girl and very kind.” - Tatiana Tarasova
