After a 13-month study and debate, Hendrix College's board of trustees has
decided to add football to the college's athletic program. Football was
discontinued at Hendrix after the 1960 season because of costs. No timetable

only be implemented after start-up costs are raised from external sources.
Trustees have also voted to add women's lacrosse with the same stipulation.
