[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting discussion on D1 vs D3.  Here is my question…besides the Ivy League schools,the academies, and a few ACC and Big 10 schools where would you rather see your child go to school besides schools like Tufts, Amherst, or Williams?  I’m sure someone will comment on the Amherst coaching issues so take that out of the equation.  I think the D1 argument is short sighted and not thinking about the bigger life picture.[/quote]
Georgetown, Lehigh, Villanova, Loyola, all the ACC and B10 just to name a few. Tufts Amherst and Williams and the other woke schools will stop supporting a sport they despise. The support at these schools will fade in the future. [/quote]

D1 can’t take school support for granted either. It’s not like the Ivies have a great track record of supporting their sports programs. And you can go back to a pre-woke world and see how Duke hung their lacrosse team out to dry in the blink of an eye. Anyone picking a college for anything other than the best possible education (that one can reasonably afford) and ticket to the future is extremely short-sighted.  I would rather my kid got a Williams or an Amherst degree than from Rutgers or High Point. Not knocking those schools, just highlighting that there are great options out there.  I think many in the “D1 or bust” camp are compensating for not academically making the cut and ending up at a D1 school with weaker academics.  Bashing D3 is like driving a Corvette - you are probably compensating for something. [/quote]
