Looks like still 3 major problems.Running a major program, with 18 scholarships and bigger recruiting and travel budgets, costs roughly $2 million a year, money that would not be made up in ticket sales alone. There are other costs or complications. Per Title IX rules, if UConnby bnr24 - Hockey

KeithK bnr24 css228 jtn27 How is that heteronormative? Isn't that a fact? It;s heteronormative to assume it is a great idea that a guy walk in a big city alone at night. Surely its safer, but that's a relative term. Well. Basically, it is heteronormative to think that women can't defend themselves or are specifically more likely to be attacked.
