Shouldn't teams refrain from playing others that invest their funds in areas that they feel are insistive to what they believe in, (i.e. Investments in South Africa, Japan until they change their Whaling stance). In keeping with this Faculty/Staff ratios of minorities should be examined as well before playing. I also think certain colors should be off-limit - "Black" Bears, The Big "Red", The "Yellow" Jackets. I seem to remember many years ago that the Big-Ten Football teams were hesitant to schedule playing Southerm Teams that didn't allow Blacks to play. Certain numbers and signs are also considered offensive. Teams may consider not playing other who violate religious holidays and "Sabbath" laws (i.e. New Hamphire (Dartmouth) still does celebrate Martin Luther King's Birthday). *** William Krebs *** e-mail address = [log in to unmask]
