Letter to the editor: Women’s team
October 31, 2000
I have noticed lately that there have been a few articles about the men’s swim team. It is great to see that.
There was also one today about both the men’s and women’s cross country teams. I think you do a good job of covering all the sports, even though they aren’t as popular as football and basketball. I just haven’t seen any articles about the women’s swim team. I am not a swimmer, but as far as I know, the women started their season when the men did. I am not trying to be a feminist or anything.
I don’t think you left them out because of any gender or sex issues. I assume they just got overlooked, which isn’t really fair. I look forward to seeing some articles about how they have been doing so far, and what we can expect during the season. Maybe you could even throw in a schedule of their home meets.
I know a lot of the women on the team would really appreciate it. Thanks.
