Xavier podcast 41
« on: August 19, 2024, 09:49:44 PM »
FWIW:

During this podcast, A.D. Greg Christopher discusses Xavier athletics past, present and future. Xavier is discussed but nothing new. The med school takes priority and football is on the table. He mentions the lack of a stadium with estimates of a new one being in the $20-25 million range for a PFL type stadium. Seems steep as to have a serviceable stadium but what do I know?

Also noted Duquesne football which is now scholarship plays away games this fall at Toledo, Youngstown State and Boston College. All are teams Xavier used to play albeit BC games were longer ago. They play at Rooney Field which can?t possibly be worth anywhere near $20 million dollars but, again, what do I know? One site says that Duquesne?s 2022 male undergraduate enrollment was only 37% male. Cannot locate any info on Xavier?s current ratio but it is hard to imagine that it is near 50%. Not that it has to be. Duquesne room and board with tuition and other expenses nears a $65k/yr. price tag.
With exorbitant costs and shrinking numbers of college-aged students, how will Xavier continue to attract undergraduate students let alone males? Med schools attract as many females as males.
