ASU Men's Swimming/Diving Cut

As of 8:10am this morning one of the finer programs in the country is lost due to "budgetary" problems. No one saw it coming and they just recently signed some top level recruits that gave them one of the top 3 recruiting classes in the country.

    It sounds like you want women who hates sports and have babies at a young age Show me where I said that. Not a fan of labeling undergraduate women as baby machines. Then stop doing it. I specifically stated graduate students. And I specifically stated that women beyond the age of 22. Shame on you for not catching it. It shouldn't surprise me, though, given your complete ignorance of the scope of Title IX. But throwing out Title IX because of your gender stereotyping when new girls sports arrive constantly? Blech. 1. You don't know jack about Title IX. It's NOT exclusive to sports. Your assumption that it is just shows your ignorance. Read up on it, THEN come back and throw out accusations like that. 2. In no way, shape or form have I stated that Title IX should be thrown out. I've stated repeatedly that the problem is its interpretation. The fact that you think that I think it needs to be dismantled boggles my mind. Title IX is about equal funding and opportunities in academia for men and women. Shifting money from one service -- athletics -- that female students have conclusively stated they don't want to other services is... get this... in compliance w/ Title IX. :frustrated: Just b/c you're ignorant about the full scope of Title IX doesn't mean that I am. 3. My opinions are based on working in higher education for 13 years. I've asked my students about these issues.
