Because sports is also a skill that we want some people to develop? Including sports that aren’t profitable?
I also hate that sports has turned into profit centers for colleges, but I’m happy when profit from some sports supports unprofitable choices.
The university I went to is known for the breadth of its sports program in addition to being one of the top academic schools. I’ve never participated in or even watched most of them, but I’m happy they were there. We not only develop top scientists and tech people but top people in archery or rowing or water polo or whatever arbitrary sport. That’s a good thing
