I am sure that Troy vs. Ithaca was one of a few key factors.  I was half-kidding (but not totally  ;-) )with that last post.

It is about 3:1 at RPI now also. FWIW, it was about 43:1 in my entering class. :-/

I should have stuck with my plan to go to vet school.  Ten years ago most vet schools were up to 70% female and that has only grown from what I have heard.  :-)

I didn't see it mentioned here but it seems the deals are getting less impressive in the smaller markets.  Salt Lake City's Delta Center is now the EnergySolutions Arena as of November 20, 2006.  That might be cool if they were in the wind farm business but EnergySolutions processes low level nuclear waste.  Proposed nicknames include the ChernoBowl, JazzMat, the Fallout Shelter, the Melta Center, and Radium Stadium.

And I also missed the December 7, 2006 renaming of the Orlando Arena as the Amway Arena.  Amway founder Richard DeVos owns the Orlando Magic.  The arena had been the TD Waterhouse Centre.

And in case you missed it, Yankee Stadium is getting the 2008 All Star Game.  No grand send offs planed for Shea as of yet.

This year's tourney will take place at the Knickerbocker arena, same it has for several years now.[/quote]

Agree completely.[/quote] Actually, it's the Times Union Center, not Arena. I just listened to Ken Schott of the Schenectady Gazette (a competitor of the Albany Times Union) discussing "Puck at the TUC". ::looking::
