Gso, that's actually a pretty impressive list! I'm kind of thinking you might want to take what you have, add in the info we have from here, and start a separate thread with that info. With this thread I'm trying to stick with all-sports conference moves, otherwise I think it would end up being am overload of information. I do think that it would be an excellent thread on its own though.

Division 2 school, St Paul's College,a CIAA member apparently has financial problems.Unclear whether this will cause the school to drop out of the league and/or the division.
