today's gazette has an article on this. The voters are 424 representatives, one from each of the 424 division III NCAA member institutions. The 8 affected schools are St. Lawrence - Mens & Womens Hockey Clarkson - Mens & Womens Hockey RPI - Mens Hockey CC - Mens Hockey and Womens Soccer Johns Hopkins - Mens & Womens Lacrosse Hartwick - Womens Water POlo SUNY Oneonta - Mens Soccer Rutgers Newark - Mens Volleyball CC athletics director Joel Nielson is reported as being "concerned with" the proposed legislation. Apparently, the 8 schools are planning to submit an amendment to the legislation to exempt them from the legislation. Failing that, the next step would apparently be to convince a majority of schools to vote down the proposal. It seems that the proposal originated because in a survey 59 percent of the D-III schools to some degree supported eliminating multi division classification An alternative, if this legislation is adopted, would be for CC to move to division II. My suspicion is that the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference would welcome CC. There are 6 RMAC schools within 100 miles of CC. charlie shub University of Colorado at Colorado Springs [log in to unmask] http://cs.uccs.edu/~cdash (719) 262-3492 (fax) 262-3369
