A day after the Ivy League announced the cancellation of its fall sports, another one of the leagues eight members is eliminating its mens and womens golf programs.
Dartmouth revealed Thursday that it will cut five sports in all while also permanently closing the schools golf course, Hanover Country Club. The move, which follows a similar decision by Brown in May, is expected to save the university, which is facing a projected $150 million institutional budget deficit, about $2 million, according to a statement released by Dartmouth president Philip Hanlon.

if colleges want to save money then they should eliminate football...the most expensive sport and sure, the big universities with the steroid players can pull in lots of money, but the feeder colleges,the ones that are willing to take a beating every year, loose money constantly...
I hope the big drop in income means the 6 figure college professors get the boot.....
Predictable. Stick it to the whitey golfers.
Meanwhile, the campus Institute for LBHTQ bestiality studies remains fully funded.
Plenty of money for the administrators and faculty
Golf.... Racist whites walking around with clubs. ...
Exactly. But can’t touch that endowment.
Buffy and Biff are Deeply Saddened. ;)
I am just going to post this here.
One of the guys I have been watching but assumed his tickets were not real because they were just kind of unbelievable...just got confirmed.
He in on C. M. for the current Workaday tournament. He will win over a million bucks if Colin wins the tournament but has already won a bunch off Colin yesterday. Results today still pending
Sure enough, Betrivers just posted about his bets
He also won huge last week, too.
Kind of blows my mind how much he bet..and he actually has a shot at winning.
Since I took a bet on Colin K I hope he goes all the way
Hell, golf and tennis are the only damned sports I can watch anymore because they dont throw leftist woke propaganda in your face constantly.
If you cut the athletic programs and scholarships for white athletes, you ensure all of the remaining athletes are "diverse". That's what diversity is about, right?
Dartmouth is not the only school doing this. It's a national trend. Swimming and diving, golf, tennis, equestrian, sailing, rowing, squash, volleyball, etc are being cut in many schools. Obviously, these sports are "low revenue".
Exactly what I was thinking, these Universities with huge endowments are crying poverty and cutting programs. Explain the need to cut golf a sport where the players are rarely in close proximity to each other and play in wide open areas with plenty of sun and fresh air, hell it's the last sport that should be cut.
