The habit gets a new name.
Mercyhurst University’s college hockey program was discontinued, but not before the university asked for donations. The men’s ice hockey team had not had a winning record since the 2017-18 season. The program’s discontinuation was part of a “comprehensive strategy focused on long-term viability and alignment with student demand.” Donors were asked to support the team just days before the announcement.
The routine arrives with confidence: “Give money to a team that very soon will not exist.”
