Let's say they meet their goal and UAH administration relents and brings back the program for at least this coming year. Would they still be a WCHA member?

Is there still going to be a WCHA next season? I haven't kept up with the news at all.
I just think the GoFundMe is interesting because it was only started a few days ago and as of now, they have almost all the money they are requesting - although it's only about half of what they say they need in total, as I understand it.

For the coming season (2020-2021) yes. The Minnesota and Michigan schools restart the CCHA for 2021-2022.
The GoFundMe campaign is amazing, but let's face it, you can't sustain a quality program doing this every few years.

Oh yeah, absolutely. We're in total agreement there.
Without a massive financial overhaul, the program won't last long. The fundraisers are cool, but it's definitely not a sustainable long-term solution. I don't expect to see UAH survive long term, as much as I'd like them too. I was only sharing the fundraiser because I thought it was interesting to watch. It would be nice if they could save the program for another year or two - let the juniors and seniors get through the system while the others have time to make plans to move on. From my understanding, UAH cancelled to late for any transfers to really happen - although that was just what I was told, so it could be wrong.
I heard a lot of rumblings about the WCHA crumbling and essentially being replaced by the CCHA, but I wasn't sure when that was all happening - I was too busy this hockey season to really pay attention to what was going on. Thanks for filling me in though - I appreciate it.
UAH hockey still has some work to do but there's hope. This money was raised in only 1 week. If it works well, maybe they can advise a certain school in California that had football.

500 grand in less than a week from a small school in a non-hockey state is very impressive. I didn't think they'd do it.
William Jewell is reinstating men's wrestling and adding women's wrestling. Both will begin competition in 2021-22. Women's wrestling is on track to becoming a NCAA emerging sport.
