Please get your priority right. Academic/athletic mix is in order for here. We have student athletes at HC, who are willing to compete in the ECAC with similar minded schools.

We have student athletes here at Colgate too! In fact, you could argue we have "smarter" student athletes here and we have a higher AI too! I normally don't get into the "my school is better than your school" fight, but whether it is intended or not your inference is that Colgate somehow has it's academic priorities out of whack. Right...

Now, on your other point, that's where you're missing it. You are not of a similiar mind of other ECAC schools if you want to support women's ice hockey at the D-III level. You may be of similiar academic mind, but the mix that you speak of is off!

colgate 13 YOUR priority is in need of an explanation, not Colgate U.
No one said D-III women's hockey, but 3-5 years to build into D-I program.
HC arranged to play some games at the Centrum, 2 miles away from campus, where Icecats play before 6-8000 hockey fans. NCAA hockey regionals have played there 2-3 times with 13000 fans in attendance. Quality facility for hockey fans in central New England, more exposure for all ECAC teams.
