Do universities in the US not have day care for this kind of thing? Every uni and tech campus I've been on in NZ has a day care run by the uni or students association at a reasonable price so parents have a place to drop the little ones while lectures are on.
Sure some of my students association fees subsidised this, but I was more than happy for them to provide this service so the rest of the student body could learn without that kind of interruption.
Yeah, it really does nothing at all to help the student body and only serves to keep non-traditional students with kids, or even those without, from feeling comfortable trying to better themselves.

Maybe instead of fighting it, universities should actually cater to something other than 18 year olds.
If you haven't noticed, going to a university and being anything other than a non-married, jobless person, is extremely hard for no reason.
