Michigan university stirs anxiety with plans to cut most programs, all sports in a year www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/michigan/2024/06/30/michigan-university-stirs-anxiety-with-plans-to-cut-most-programs-all-sports-concordia/74192993007/"Concordia University announced on June 20 that it will offer a normal 2024-25 academic year but will then eliminate the majority of its 53 on-campus programs due to financial challenges it has had for more than a decade. Beginning in 2025-26, Concordia University in Ann Arbor will offer nine mostly medical programs for students on campus and seven online. It will also discontinue its 28 intercollegiate athletic teams after 2024-25, according to university officials." The Titans played Concordia once, beating them 113-68 on 11/18/11.

Wasnt one of our WBB assistants formerly on the Concordia WBB or MBB staffs, Kiefer Haffey? Looks like he made a good move joining Coach Kate’s staff a couple of years back!

Pretty interesting story and feels like a doom loop they’ve now entered with cutting academic and now ALL athletics. Presumably a lot of the athletes were paying the high tuition price to keep playing and even with that calculus they still have to cut. Eeks.

Naming a University after an Airplane looks like it might be a little more foolish than after a Hospital😇, or was it🤔?
