Brown's Paul Jasinowski has had no problems balancing an Ivy-League education with success on the football field. Head coach Phil Estes agrees, noting that Paul "attacks everything he does with great passion, great focus and with lots of success. He's the complete student-athlete."

In the classroom, the Washington D.C. native is an Ivy League Honor Roll member with a 3.70 GPA. After graduating with a double major in Economics and Urban Studies, he plans to pursue an MBA. 

A two-time All-Ivy player, Jasinowski has anchored an offensive line that led the Ivy League in sacks given up (7) en route to Brown's Ivy League Championship. During his sophomore season, the Bears led the Ivy league in total offense and passing offense. As a junior, Jasinowki and the offensive line led the way to Brown's offense being ranked first in the Ivy in scoring at 29.3 points per game. This season, Brown leads the Ivy League in total offense and points per game as well as sacks against. 

For three years, Jasinowski has been a coordinator and leader of a weekly volunteer group for special needs students at Fox Point Elementary School. In 2008, he was awarded the Chris Perry Community Service Award, given to a Brown football player who is the most involved in the community and exhibits the qualities of "scholarship, leadership and concern for others". He also co-coordinated a fundraiser event to benefit the fight against cancer called "Bench Press for Cancer". 

Jasinowski follows 2005's Nick Hartigan as the Bears' sixth NFF National Scholar-Athlete. Jasinowski earned his MBA from the University of California in 2015 and is currently a senior associate for McKinsey and Company, a global management consulting firm.
