Get rid of Nordic skiing in Fairbanks for Golf?  You've got to be kidding.  The teams just joined the most elite NCAA conference - what disrespect to them.  Skiing has been part of UAF campus life since its inception and builds community for our northern town. In reviewing the UA committee report on line, I found no systematic data on cost of each of the sports, both mens and womens (nor did it itemize the particular costs for each sport such as scholarships, tuition waiver, facility costs, equipment, travel, coaches, management, etc.); nor did it even list all the sports.  Without sufficient facts about how funds are spent, new configurations merely speculate; provide facts on detailed costs for review prior to the public meetings.  Sustainable Alaska depends on pre-K to university education that will foster creativity, research, and civic minded people building a stronger community across the state. Putting around orange golf balls in the snow is a sport best left in Nome
