To briefly summarize the conflict, my University's Athletic's Program went under review this semester in order to "fairly" adjust its budgeting for Title IX programs. In order to do this, they have decided to cut both the Men's Baseball and Men's Soccer programs to expand he Women's Tennis Program. Many good people will lose scholarships because of this, and I'm outraged.
While I understand the premise of Title IX, and support equality, it doesn't seem fair to me that nearly 50 guys will lose their passion so maybe 6 more girls can see theirs.
The school had been reviewing this for nearly 3 months now, and the decision was announced today.
