Anyone know why women's shot clock is only 30 seconds but men's is 35?

Prior to Title IX, women did not play under the auspices of the NCAA. They formed the AIAW in 1972, estalishing their own rules, and using a 30 second shot clock. That didn't change after the NCAA and AIAW merged 1982. It's still used today.
