So, I was thinking about college fencing, and it seemed to me that it would be very natural for schools like TCU, SMU, UT-D, etc to have fencing clubs, and yet I don't know of any in Dallas that do. As far as I know, the only clubs north of Austin are Baylor, UNT, A&M and Texas Tech. Am I missing anyone?

SMU used to have a club. They never traveled much though.

There is also Amarillo College Fencing Assn. I really ought to know that. Are they restricted to college students? Some of the people I thought were fencing for them didn't look very collegiate, but I could have mistaken their affiliation.

The club is open to everyone. There are youth fencers and adults. The club is called Amarillo College because their salle is in Amarillo College's campus. They're more of an autonomous unit apart from the college: they just use their grounds. There is also a fencing class that students can enroll in to take through Amarillo College.
I believe that there were stipulations put into the SWIFA bylaws to allow any college student that is of at least 17 years of age. (Kinda off topic...)

Yeah, that'd be great! We'd get a new school in on it!

Its easier to remember the redirect www.swifa.net instead of the road runner address Yes, but it keeps coming back at the RoadRunner address when I create a shortcut on the desktop. I dunno. Somebody please explain.

its a re-direct; instead of something that costs more money...... If you type swifa.net it "re-directs" you to the free website that its being hosted by.............. or something like that.....I think i have that right but yet im an (undergrad anthropology/biology/ Masters in degree Health research and epidemiology student) I dont do web. computer stuff. those do cost money to emplement
