The men's swim team is a huge part of this college. Most of the men on this team revolve around swimming. It's their passion. Yeah

These teams give there heart and soul into their sport to get better. They have drive like no other perosn on this campus. To cut them from the thing that drives them, is the worst thing UB could do. I strongly suggest UB to reconsider their decision.

Incoming freshmen especially are highly impacted by this decision as well as sophomores and juniors who attend just for these Sports.

As a student here at UB I value all these teams so much please don't get rid of them they are worth the millions.

I was horrified to hear about the UB men's program being cut. Especially because the women's team would still be operating, the administration will still have to pay for maintenance for the facility...UB had a great year. No reason to be penalized. Swimmers continually prove to have the highest GPA on many campuses and represent the institution well on and off campus. If my program got cut, id be devastated. Hopefully they can see the error of their short sighted ways.

Stop spending money on pointless banners to put on the sides of buildings and use the money for our teams! You want to recruit the best? Then have the best teams. Cant do that if you take them away.

This is unfair to these sports teams, especially to new recruits coming into your school.

Please consider the amount of trust that these families and athletes have put into choosing to attend your university. To spring the deletion of their sports on them right as finals are to occur, leaving them without time to plan to transfer next year to another school with their sport, is very inconsiderate to say the least. Please allow them at least one more year to participate in the sport that made them choose your university, so that they may be recruited into another university for the 2018/2019 year. The damage that you are mentally doing to them at finals time can really hurt them academically, as you have left them shocked and cornered without warning. Please make this right.

I have a lot of friends on the teams being cut, and to have something you love to do taken away just like that really isn't fair

A well rounded sports program is beneficial to all, participants and supporters. UB needs to rethink this action.

the elimination of even one team to fund another is shameful, let alone all of these teams. You are am educational institution and you are teaching your athletes that money is the only thing that matters. Whoever was responsible for this decision, you have a chance to redeem yourself and undo this plan. Otherwise, you will be remembered only as the person who killed the ambitions of so many bright young athletes for financial incentives.

There are better ways to save money.
Don't hurt sports that the community is highly involved in.
