Even though they feel we have so much farther to go, I think
our students will be intrigued by the fight against pervasive sexist attitudes
in the 1960s and 1970s. A third story (sadly) may seem more familiar to them
as it describes efforts by a Fresno State athletics administrator, Diane Milutinovich,
to obtain equal funding for men’s and women’s sports in the 1990s. A call to
continued action and an important historical record, 37
WORDS has extensive notes and a detailed index, both of which will be useful
aids to our student researchers.
"No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance." -- Title IX's first thirty-seven words
Noteworthy from NPR: Crowds cheered as Rachel Balkovec, the first woman to manage an MLB-affiliated team, took home a victory for the New York Yankees-affiliated Tampa Tarpons on Friday, April 8, 2022 - almost 50 years after enactment of Title IX.
