Bring back the sports teams. As a former student athlete (football). If not it would deter me from coming back to campus

I am so saddened at the direction of my beloved Whittier College right now. This is the first year in many that I just could not donate. I cannot support something I do not believe in. Changes must be made from the top down to stop the decimation of what I knew Whittier College to be.

Student athletes learn and practice VALUABLE leadership, team-working, time management and many other skills from these programs that translate to desired, real-world attributes! Please do not cut them.

Disappointed in my alma mater (not yours Dr. Oubre) and the incapable leadership operating the institution.

My son, Cory Baker, played football for 4 years at Whitter College. It was the highlight of my life watching him play!

This is an embarrassing explanation/ reason for dropping a program.

One of the great things about this program s that it brings in students who may not of considered Whittier as an option. However, the ability to play football brought them in providing an increased diversity of students

As a former track athlete at WC, I’m happy to sign and support the other athletes!

Student athletes deserve the right to compete in these sports and your decision to eliminate them is going to have major negative affects on Whittier College in the future.
