Program Description

Description

Title IX legislation, passed as part of the 1972 Education Amendments, helps protect against gender-based discrimination in educational programming that receives financial assistance. Although Title IX protects against discrimination in many different venues, it is often closely associated with athletics. Dr. Tabatabai will explore the important ways in which Title IX changed the athletic landscape for women and girls, while also focusing on the work that remains in ensuring that athletes are treated fairly regardless of gender.
