UNM: If sports restored, hit will fall on academics - RYAN BOETEL, ABQJOURNAL
Last year, the UNM Board of Regents voted to cut men’s soccer, beach volleyball and three other sports. University of New Mexico officials say they would need to divert funds from other parts of the institution and create a new women’s sports team if they’re forced to reinstate the four teams set to be phased out this summer. And UNM President Garnett Stokes reiterated her position that, as head of the university, it is hard to rationalize pumping more money into sports when the academic side of the institution has seen major cuts in recent years.
