Our club, started summer 2005, was killed Fall 2009

Wondering why we can't play? So are we. See:

  • Campus Recreation Mission Statement
  • Division of Student Development and Campus Life Faculty Guide -- see page 38
    (page 11 in the Fall 2009 version).
  • There is nothing in these statements that rules out one particular sport,
    or class of Montclair State University members (student, staff, faculty, alumni).

    We had been playing weekly from the Summer of 2005 to the Fall of 2009 before being kicked out of the only playable gym on campus. Is this what happens if you are part of a minority? It seems that way. One of the arguments presented was that the new Recreation Center is "mainly" for students because student fees were levied to pay for it. However, this contradicts all available policy statements.
