I agree whole heartedly with Sue Estler's comment on WLBZ news last night - every dollar spent defending the U from a lawsuit is a dollar that could go for gender equity. UMaine has made real strides and a good faith effort to rectify the situation in the last few years. While that may not satisfy the militant among us, it is like slapping a child for past wrongs, just as they are starting to act right! Cathy Hart
