I agree with most of the sentiments here... including attracting LI kids to bolster stadium attendance, but not at the expense of city kids, especially innercity kids. I am not in favor of reducing students from the city, even if they leave for the weekend to see their families.. Most of these are talented students from poor, lower-middle or middle-class families who are not affluent like the LI families that can afford Syracuse, NYU etc. These kids are getting world-class education that is affordable at Stony Brook. While l love the Seawolves and our Seawolves family, if its a choice between providing education to have-nots and athletics experience, I know what I would choose in a heartbeat.
