Been wondering about the same thing myself. The main question is what drives enrollment, I doubt anymore students attend Canisius because it is a D1 school unless they are recruited to play a D1 sport, actually wonder if there might be more students interested in attending if they thought they had a chance to play a sport, I would assume this has been analyzed at length by the administration. Not sure what ncaa rules are anymore regarding playing one D1 sport but I think it used to be ok. I would think many schools have to be considering options, however schools like Lemoyne and Mercyhurst have moved to D1 this year so there must be some reason for that, maybe it is just the name marketing that comes with D1 affiliation regardless of success that drives decisions.

But, going to DIII means no more$100,000 payments from Maryland and Arizona and our admissions office will be even more dependent on WNY students as we lose interest from kids outside this area.

As a localized university, we would compete athletically against many schools with superior facilities and resources. Think Hobart, Hamilton, RIT, Univ. of Rochester, Fisher and Ithaca. And, we would owe $1 million to the MAAC to leave. Not a viable alternative
