The fact that a private club CAN exclude whomever they want does not mean that a private club SHOULD exclude whomever they want. The fact that it is legal to discriminate does not make it right. For me, the answer is simple: discrimination is wrong, period. It may be legal, but it is wrong.

I don't think for one minute that the powers that be at Augusta want to admit minority or female members. They consider it or do it for appearance/appeasement/pc reasons only. As much as I love the course and their yearly invitational, the rest of what they stand for is not for me.

I don't care. Auguata National is in Georgia. The South is like a different country to a New Englander.

There are plenty of all woman's health clubs. And there are all boy and all girls private schools.
Right or wrong, Augusta isn't the first private institution to be of a single sex.

Separate rest rooms for minorities would clearly be wrong but this is different.
