Stand Up and Shout Out by Joan Steidinger

STAND UP AND SHOUT OUT by Joan Steidinger is set to be released in March and is certain to appeal to many of our students.  Each year, I seem to have an increasing number of girls who are interested in researching and writing about discrimination against women in sports.  This text, written by a licensed clinical and sports psychologist, touches on many key issues.  Examples include equal pay, media coverage, and the role of female leaders/mentors/coaches.  I am excited to add this title to our collection.  It will be a great complement to texts like Sex Segregation in Sports and Getting in the Game about Title IX.
