How can the college reduce costs without cutting teams? When are teams like Ice Hockey, Soccer, Football, etc being cancelled due to the same concerns?

Do the math, football has significantly more concussions, and serves less students. This isn't about concussions.

Rugby players train,work,and play as hard as their brothers and sisters in NCAA sports without the support of the administration and outside groups. Not to allow this group of students the ability to compete in the sport of their choice is a SHAME. This decision should be reversed.

You still have a football team right? Then your issue is not with concussion - http://cognet.mit.edu/library/conferences/paper?paper_id=47514

If you're going to do away with rugby for fear of TBI, you'll also have to get rid of most other sports, including your money-makers, like football, soccer, lacrosse, ice/field hockey, even basketball and baseball. Any team sport runs the risk of TBI, football and soccer are actually the riskiest, not rugby.
