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.

To put it in other terms, I think that may be the reason of using steroids for many yougers is the presure of doing better in sports to get an scholarship instead of prefering to get one for sciences, math or other.
So Universities should focus on giving scholarships for those specialities other than because of sports.
What happend if you get an scholarship in gymnastics for example, and you concentrate on your sport more than your professional carrier, and then you don't get to be a world class athlete?, would you be a good doctor, engineer, layer or whatever? :confused:
