Regarding who is still D-2,  but on probation,  and who is not  --  in
response to a post on HOCKEY3,  but of interest to others as well.
 
        Quinnipiac only did one year of D-2 to D-1 probation which I believe
finishes in a few days.   They received a waiver of the second year from
the NC$$,  and will be full-fledged D-1 this summer in all sports.   I do
not know if going D-1 in all sports (rather than only hockey) facilitated
the waiver or not.   I do know they had to jump through several extra hoops
to get it.   I suspect that having a very strong plan and gender equity
from the get-go probably is what the NC$$ was looking for.
