Letters to the editor
Issue date: 3/31/08 Section: Opinion
Dear editor,
I understand that CSU is committed to about $2 million for two second-rate sports coaches who apparently head football and women's basketball.
For a university that is supposedly designed to educate, these absurd salaries for individuals not worth more than $30,000 says very little for the intelligence prevailing at the university.
Considering the nation's economic crisis, the wisest move would be to close down for good these two unnecessary activities and apply the funds saved to educational matters.
To be obliged to read the constant wailing of university representatives and university students of the lack of funds really is the limit. One matter is certain -- any further request for college fund assistance will automatically enter the garbage can.

Getting rid of both Football and Basketball at Colorado State University is one of the dumbest moves the university could make. Athletic programs are single handidly responsible for the prosperity of major universities such as North Carolina, USC, UCLA, Etc. (Continued…)
