Do we call the music or philosophy department non-revenue?

Not sure why we make that distinction for Olympic sports.

The point of college sports wasn't revenue. They were included because they were thought to be valuable to students and the college experience...
Somewhere along the way, we lost that idea.

Maybe, you disagree, that athletics doesn't bring value to the university. Fine.

But let's stop using the excuse "this program cost the university $" for justifying the cutting of a sport.
If you are an AD and you are cutting sports, your job should be in jeopardy. Why? You failed.

Students shouldn't be taking the brunt of mismanagement of funds and resources.
