Regarding Petula Dvorak’s Jan. 10 Metro column, “Appearances count, but U-Md. seems oblivious”:
As a graduate of University of Maryland’s School of Law and a donor, I was already less willing to give to anything associated with the university as a result of its recent decision to eliminate certain sports teams. Although I am thankful my daughter is competing on the track team at Duke University, we are both saddened by the dilemma her racing friends from high school who chose College Park face, now that their NCAA careers have been cut short. The president’s fancy new house may be meant to win over donors, but what it says about priorities is further reducing my interest in donating.
