  1. Towson fails to give honest answers

    My alma mater made it official this past Friday: Towson University has made the despicable choice to drop the mens' soccer and baseball programs. The decision-makers had the audacity to inform the student ballplayers, their parents, and the community it was due to Title IX mandates (which basically calls for equity among the genders in our NCAA colleges and universities). Being in its off-season, the mens' soccer program was cut immediately. The baseball team will play out the remainder of its season, but many players on the team now have to make contingency plans about where to further their college baseball passion.

  2. One more unwelcome twist for Towson sports

    By dumping $300,000 in taxpayer funds on Towson University's baseball team, Gov. Martin O'Malley has temporarily solved one problem and created a multitude of others. The frustration that led Mr. O'Malley to intervene is understandable. But his proposal to use a supplemental appropriation to buy the team two more years sets a dangerous precedent while failing to address any of the problems in Towson's athletics department that got the university into the unwelcome position of cutting two men's sports in the first place.

  3. Children of St. Vincent's Villa, Villa Maria School show their talents

    The month of February saw a wide variety of events being held on the campus of <b>St. Vincent's Villa.</b> The children at St. Vincent's were treated to a wonderful concert early in the month by the Pizzazz group of high school students who wish to share their musical gifts with others. The children sang along with many of the songs, showing their enjoyment of this special event. For the President's Day holiday, high school basketball teams from Mt. St. Joe's and Our Lady of Mt. Carmel came out to run a mini-basketball clinic with the children as part of a day of service organized by Catholic Charities. The clinic ended with a pick-up game between the high-schoolers and the older boys from St. Vincent's. The <b>Jacksonville Optimist Club,</b> along with the <b>Towson University Optimist Club</b> and the Service Learners from <b>Stevenson University</b> came out to play bingo the last Saturday in the month. This fun-filled event is filled with prizes and goodie bags, as well as snacks.

  4. Inspectors keep Maryland's aging bridges safe for traffic

    On a recent cold, gray morning, state bridge inspector Van Swift jumped into his office: a 4-by-3-foot white bucket at the end of a 60-foot hydraulic arm anchored to a flatbed "snooper" truck.

  6. Cut Towson's poor management

    Towson University's decision to cut the baseball and soccer teams is unfortunate ("Baseball, men's soccer cut by Towson president," March 10).

  7. Towson athletic woes

    So let me get this straight: The Towson University 14-man basketball team must sit out their conference tournament and won't be eligible for post-season play because the team from a couple of years ago did not meet minimum grade requirements? ("Towson all fired up with no place to go," March 10.)

  9. Towson loses a recruitment tool with cancellation of soccer, baseball

    In keeping with national trends, 60 percent more women than men enroll at Towson University. Graduation rates for women versus men are similar. It wasn't that long ago that universities were tripping over themselves to increase the enrollment and graduation of women.
