"ought to be" -- but not yet. Don't be complacent--women are still struggling for their rights in this country. We're close, but not yet equal.

Athletics fund education, keeping the alma mater fresh in the minds of alums with money. Without the coaches' salary, there would be no money to pay for the teachers and professors' salaries. Or less money.

Good point about women's rights. We've come a long way, baby, but we have far to go.

Yeah, the sports programs bring in an awful lot of money, no matter how you look at.
