Title IX

Univ. of New Hampshire is getting rid of its women's rowing. The official line is that it has to get rid of some sports so that it can get into compliance with Title IX. Really is that it is doing a big budget cut. I wonder if this is the first women's team to be axed becasue of Title IX. I don't understand how Title IX can possibly be used for what seems to me to be a really cheap blow to many girls. Rowing is a somewhat expensive sport, lots of coaches, lots of equipment.

    Oddly, UMH for about one semester had more female sports offered than male. Their really big bugdet sport is hockey, even though they don't have thye same number of coaches as they do for football. I think itis really sad tha tfootball & basketball are su importnt to our culture's life. Both are so boring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
