Keep it a club sport and any freshman can walk onto campus and join the team. They'll get help from more experienced riders who were in their shoes in past years. It is honestly the best way to get into the sport. You show up, you learn, you race, you pass what you've learned on... The down side of being a club sport is the same as the up side - no money. I was recently staying in Craftsbury Vermont as a location to start rides. They have a rowing program there, they never had fewer than 6 coaches who are paid to be there. By comparison, I've been coaching the Harvard cycling team for 15 years, I've gotten 15 jerseys and an ice-cream machine... Sadly, importance is linked to money in our society.
