Seems to me the enclosed Roman Colosseum, two pools, barbells and stationary bikes is an over reaction to a few athletes excelling in their chosen field.
That's fine except everyone pays no small price for it.
Goes along with the national preoccupation with anything to distract from doing something useful.

Still only 1600 students. they could have 1600 athletics programs, but it wouldn't change the number of students.
