Forced Quotas Week at College Insurrection
It was another crazy week of news and politics in higher education.
Title IX started out as a great idea but along the way devolved into a system of proportional representation or in other words, quotas. Sports programs for men are feeling the most pain.
At least there’s still a way to make money through college sports.
Speaking of money, some colleges just don’t need it.

And some colleges make up for their losses in other ways.
