I. INTRODUCTION

Equal opportunity in athletic programs hag been the most closely scrutinked and controversialissue raised by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, the landmark law guaranteeingwomen and men equal educational opportunity. A number of factors are working together toincrease concern about, and interest in, intercollegiate athletic competition for women: new sportsopportunities for girls at the elementary and secondary level, increased spectator interest in women'sathletics In general, the rise of professional athletic opportunities for women, media coverage ofwomen's competitive and professional sports, and the desire or education institutions to complywith Title 1,C4 mandate for equal educational opportunity.

The key section of Title IX reads:

No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from par-ticipation In, be denied the benefits of, or be sublected to discrimination underany education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.

Institutions receiving Federal assistance must bring their athletic programs into line with TitleIX's standards for nondiscriminatory athletics, even if the athletics department itself does notreceive direct Federal aid. The "Title IX Questions and Answers," which accompanied the publica-tion of the final regulation, stated that:

the Education Amendments of 1974 specifically 1state 1 that: "The Secretarylof HEW shall prepare and publish, , .proposed regulations Impkmenting theprovisions of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 relating to theprohibition of sex discrimination in Federally-assisted education programswhich shall include with respect to intercollegiate athletic activities reasonableprovisions considering the nature of particular sports.''

In addition. athletics constitutes an integral part of the educational proc-esses of schools and colleges and, thus, are fully subject to the requiremen0 ofTitk IX, even in absence of Federal funds going directly :o the athletic pro-gra,ns,

The courts have consistently considered athletics sponsored by an educa-tional institution to be an integral part of the institution's education programand, therefore, have required institutions to provide equal opportunity.

While complying with the Title IX requirement for equal athletic opportunity will undoubtedlyinvolve many specific segments of the academic community, the ultimate responsibility for provid-ing equal athletic opportunity lies with the institution and its chief executive officer.

In the area of athletics, Title IX posts many complex questions, but mandates few absoluteactions by institutions. Indeed, the law grants institutions considerable flexibility in developing non-discriminatory athletic programs tailored to meet the needs of their students. It does not requirecolleges to duplicate their men's program for women or to offer exactly the same sports in exactlythe same fashion for both women and men. Nor does it equate equal opportunity with equal penny-for-penny expense. Rather, it requires overall equal athletic opportunity, with specific athletic offer-ings being determined primarily by the interests and abilities of female and male students.

Interpretations and clarification of this general Title IX mandate for equal athletic opportunit9are contained primarily in two documents, both of which are vital to institutions in evaluating theirintercollegiate athletic programs for compliance with Title IX:

The final Title IX regulation, which became effective on July 21, 1975, sped.fies general criteria and standards which Institutions must Wie In assessingtheir programs (including a(hletic programs) for sex bias,

The "Sports Memorandum," issued by IIEW's Office for Civil Rights in Sep-tember 1975 and formally titled "Memorandum to Chief State School Offi-cers, Superintendents o. Local Educational Agencies and College and Univer,sity Presidents re Elhnination or Sex Discrimination In Athletic Programs,"provides institutkms with additional guidance regarding how they might pro.ceed with their efforts to provide equal athletic opportunity under Title IX,

This manual provides institutions with a framework for gathering information about theirwomen's and men's athletic programs, assessing equal opport mity, and modifying their atnietiprogram to provide equal athletic opportunity. Although it focuses on the most complex area, inter-collegiate athletics, the process, principles, and tools described apply to interscholastic sports at thesecondary school level as well as to intramural and club sports at the college and secondary level.

This manual is organized into 10 major sections. Following the introduction is an outline of ageneral plan which institutions may use in evaluating (and achieving) equal athletic opportunity(Section II),

Section III discusses some of the general equal opportunity issues under Title IX.

Section IV takes a detailed look at some or the specific elements of the equal athletic oppor-tunity "laundry list" included in the regulation.

Section V discusses employment discrimination in athletic programs separately, since theadjustment period and other factors unique to athletic programs for students do not apply toemployment discrimination.

Section VI treats financial aid to athletes, an issue which is addressed individually in the regu-lation and which is of special concern to institutions which have extensive athletic scholarship pro-grams,

Section VII identifies 'and discusses important equal opportunity issues which are included insections of the regulation other than the athletics section.

Section VIII explores some of the organizational and structural issues which face institutions,

Section IX looks at some of the issues surrounding athletic funding which institutions mightwish to explore in evaluating their overall athletic program. Although Title IX does not requireequal aggregate expenditures, an analysis of how athletic resources are used can provide institutionswith insight and information which can assist them in developing a nondiscriminatory athletic pro-gram.

Section X provides an extensive listing of related resources which institutions may draw uponduring their assessment of their athletic programs,

Additionally, each major section of this manual is organized hito several subsections:

First, a summary of the specific provisions of the Title IX regulation and any additionalguidance provided by the "Sports Memorandum" which IIFW's Office for Civil Rightsissued in September 1975,

Second, a discussion of some or the questions and Issues raised by these provisions,

Mini, where appropriate, a listing of some suggested alternatives which institutions mightconsider if they find sex-based inequities,

Fourth, where appropriate, model assessment tools to assist institutions in gathering relevantdata regarding athletic opportunities for women and men at their institution, Because of thediversity of athletic programs from campus to campus, sonic institutions will find it neces-sary to revise these tools, tailoring them to address the specific sitnation at their institution,

A GENERAL PLAN FOR EVALUATING AND ACHIEVINGEQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN AND MEN

IN ATHLETIC PROGRAMS

The Title IX regulation (in section 86.3(c)) requires institutions to undertake a self-evaluationof their programs and activities, iocluding athletic activities, The regulation requires each educa-tional institution to:

(0 Evaluate, In terms of the requirements of I the Title IX regulation I, its currentpolicies and practices and the effrets thereof concerning admission of students, treatmentof students, and employment of both academie and non-academic personnel working Inconnection with the recipient's education program or activity;

(II) Modify any of these policies and practices which do not or may not meet therequirements of I the regulation/ ; and

(Iil) Take appropriate remedial steps to eliminate the effects of any discriminationwhich resulted or may have resulted frwn adherence to these policies and practices.

Tlie regulation (in seet1011 86,3(d)) requires institutions to maintain "a description of anymodifications made. .and. , ,any remedial actions taken" on file "for at least three years" followingthe completion of the required Title IX self-evaluation, and to make these materials available to theDirector of IIEW's Office for Civil Rights "upon request."

Also, Oie regulation (in section 86,3(b)) permits institutions to undertake affirmative action toiwercome the effects of past discrimination against, or limited participation by, women:

Affirmative action. In the absence of a finding of discrimination on the basis of sexin an education program or activity, a recipient may take affirmathe action to overcomethe effects of conditions which resulted In limited participation therein by persons of aparticular sex. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to alter any affirmative action obliga-tions wideh a recipient may have unckr Executive Order 11246,

Additionally. the "Sports Memorandum" states that:

An institution's evaluation of its athletic program must include every arca of tlu'progrwn covered by the regulation. All sports are to be included in this overall assess-ment, whether they are contact or non-contact sports.

The "Sports Memorandum" also gives the following general guidance regarding institutionalevaluation of athletic opportunities, pointing out that, in determining student interests and abilities,educational institutions "should draw (upon] the broadest possible base of information" and thatan "effort should be made to obtain the participation of all segments of the educational communityaffected by the athletics program":

In order to comply wills the various requirements of the regulation addressed tonondiscrimination in athktic programs, educational institutions operating athletic pro-grams above the ekmentarr level should:

1 (1

5

( I ) Compare the requirements of the regulation addressed to nondiscrimination in ath-letic programs and equal opportunity in the provision of athletic scholarships withcurrent policies and practices;

(2) Determim' the interests of both seXeS ii, Mc sports to be offered by the institutionand, where the sport is a onitact sport or where part icionits are selected on the basisof earn/WU/ion, also determine the relative abilities of members of each ex fOr eachsuch sport offered, hi order to decide whether have single-sex teams or ItVIIIAcmnposed of both sexes .

(3) Develop a plan to accommodate effectively the interests and abilities of both sexes,whieh plan must be fully implenwnted as expeditiously as possible and in no eventlater than July 21, 1978, Although the plan need not be submitted to the Offke forColl RION, institutions ,lhould consider publicizing such plans so as to gain dieoNtclunre of students, faculty, etc. in complying with them,

Discussion

Elw complex tak of evaluating equal opportunity in athletic programs is closely related to thedegree to which other segments of the institution provide women with equal Opportunity.

Under the Title IX regulation. institutions should have completed a self-evaluation of their pro-grams and activities by July 21. 1976. but secondary and postsecondary schools may have an "ad-justment Nriod" until July I. 1978 to bring their athletic programs fully into line with the regula-tion. It does riot, however, mandate a specific process for evaluating or modifying athletic programsto assure equal opportunity for women and men.

The following plan for evaluation arid change Is adapted for athletics from the "General Planfor Self-Evaluation" which Emily Taylor and Donna Shavlik proposed in the American Council onEducation's working paper on histillItlonld Self-El'ablaINII.' The Thle IX Requirement,* Althoughsome of the steps of the following plan are required by the Title IX regulation (e.g., submitting anassurance or compliance to 11EW and appointing a Title IX coordinator), others are simply sugges-tions of ways institutions might approach the process of evaluating and achieving equal opportunityfor women in athletic programs."

This suggested plan emphasiles the importance of both strong commitment to equal opportu-nity by the chief executive officer of the institution and substantial involvement or those personswho manage athletic programs in the process of evaluating and modifying the programs in order toprovide equal opportunity, As Taylor and Shavlik said in their working paper:

The direct invofrement of the higluut ranking official is essential to the success of theinstitutitmal self-evaluation , Ins or her commitment to equality of opportunity andfidl access to all benefits and service.s offered by the college establishes climate withinwhich the self-e$'aluation will proc('ed.

THE GENERAL PLAN FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

The following 14 steps describe a process which institutions might use in evaluating their ath-letic programs for sex bias and implementing modifications aimed at ploviding their female andmale students with equal athletic opportunity.

Emily Taylor and Donna Shavlik, Invitational SellEvaluationv rlw rale IS Requitement (Washington, D.C.:

Commission on Women in Iligher Education, American Council on Education, I975):Similarly, a number of general requirements in the 'title IX regulation-such as the requirement to adopt and

publish a grievance procedure -are not included in this general plan. For additional information about these gen.

eta] requirements, refer to the Title IX regulation and to the self.evaluation guides listed in the last section of

thisinanuat.

Step I , Affirm the institution's nondiscriminatory athletic policy and inform the conunmiltythat the institution does not discriminate on the basis or sex in provkling athletic opportunities, Asa starting point, the chief executive officer of the institution should affirm the institution's nondis-crimhuitory policy in all areas (including athletic programs and activities) The Title IX regulationrequires that each institution submit to I IEW an assurance (IIEW form (9) that it is complyingwith the provisions of Title IX, Also, the institution must inform students, eniployees, applicantsfor admission and employment, sources of referral for such applicants, bargaining Units, and otltersthat the institution does not discriminate on the basis or sex in activities or programs (includingathletic programs) and that Title IX prohibits such discrimination,

Step 2. Appoint a Title IX coordinator, The Title IX regulation requires that this person haveresponsibility for coordinating the institution's overall elTorts to comply with Title IX regulationand investigating any Title IX complaint that is communicated to the institution. The Title IXcoordinator should be knowledgeable about sex discrindnation and sex role stereotyping, and becommitted to aiNtaing that the institution meets both its moral and legal obligation to provide equalopportunity (*haling athletic opporhinity) for women anal men. Additionally. the institution maywish to appoint an overall Title IX advisory group,

Step 3, Appoint a°1 Equal Athletic Opportunity Committee (EAOC), This committee wouldspecifically address the issue of inequities in athletics. A key criterion for appointment to this com-mittee shouki be a strong commitment to equal opportunity regardless of sex. This working com-mittee should be widely representative of both women and men from those groups which ai.e in-volved with, or concerned about. discrimination and athletics, such as: students (including studentathletes), coaches of both female and male teams, administrator(s) with responsibility for intercol-legiate athletics, physical education instructors, financial ald officers, and representatives of campusand/or community women's groups. In addition to notiressing specific issues regarding equal oppor-tunity and Title IX compliar ;:e, the EAOC can use this opportunity to evaluate differences in philos-ophy or practice between women's and men's athletics in light or the overall educational purposesand goals of the institution.

Step 4. Inform the campus community of progress and efforts regarding equal opportunity inathletics. The Title IX coordinator and the EAOC should work together to issue reports and other-wise inform groups concerned with athletic opportunitiesvon campus of their progress and efforts.(Relevant groups include student and faculty governing bodies, alumnae and alumni councils, admin-istrative units, commissions on the status of women, women's centers, trustees, and unions.) Addi-tionally, open meetings should be held to give individuals and groups an opportunity to have inputinto the factfinding stage and to be informed of findings and proposed changes. Periodic progressreports in campus newspapers can also be a useful mechanism for soliciting input from the campuscommunity and disseminating results and recommendations.

Step S. Identify responsible lwrsons and offices, and other sources of information. Identifythe offices and persons directly responsible for the various aspects or athletic programs and publi-cize this information. Also, identify additional sources of information, using the sources or informa-tion regarding athletics listed on page 9 as a starting point.

Step 6. Develop a factfinaig tool or evaluation model. U-ing the model assessment tools in-chided in this manual as a starting point, construct a comprehensive factfinding tool which will pro-vide information on all aspects of women's and men's athletics, including the degree to which theathletie opportunities at the institution acccnnmodate the interests and abilities of women and men.Assistance from knowledgeable social scientists and other trained observers on campus, as well asfrom persons in fields related to athletics (e.g., physiology, heal h and recreation), can be especiallyhelpful in assuring that the final evaluation covers all areas wnere there might be either overt orsubtle discrimination.

Step 7. Get the facts. Using the evaluation tools developed in the previous step, undertake afactfinding inventory to determine the current status of athletic opportunities for women and men

THE STANDARDS FOR SEPARATE TEAMS

Title IX allows institutiom 10 operate separate teams for women and men for contact sports orwhen selection for teams is bated on competitive skill. Specifically, the regulation fin section 86,41NI provides:

Notwithstanding the requirrtHents of / the regulation's general prohibitionagainst dfscpi,nft:aiio in allsktics/, a recipient /institution/ ntay operate or.sponsor separate karts for members of ad: sex where selection for such teamsis based upon competitive skill or the activity invoked is a contact sport. How-ever, where a retipkist /institution/ (WNW or sponsors (1 faun lit a particularsport for ntentbm of one sex hut operates or sponsors MO SUCh team for mem-hers of the other .w,v, and athktk opportunities for ntembers of that sex harepreviously been Ihntwa, memtwrs of the exclutMl sex nmst be allowed to tryout for the team ()teml unless the W14f1 involved is a contact sport, For thepurposes of this part mntact sports include boxing, wrestling, rugby, ke hock.ey, Potball, luttketbal and other spsirts the purpose or malor activity of whichinvolves bodily eontaa,

lft' for the men's team.

Di5ansion

Historically, intercolkgiate athletic opportuMties for women have been separate and unequal.

That is, women have competed with only women (and men have competed with only men), andwomen have had far fewer competitive opportunities than mon. Although the athletic standardsunder Title IX permit separate competition by women and men, thc regulation requires that suchcompetition provide "equal opportunity" to women and men. Even when an institution offers scp-mate teams, it must not discriminate on the basis of sex in provkling oquipment or supplies, or inany other manner.

The decision of whether to offer single-sex teams or one team open to both sexes should focus

on the concept of equal opportunity. That is, what mix of female, male, and coeducational teamswill best provide equal opportunity to both women and men? lf, for example, an institution offersbasketball for men and the only way it can accommodate the Interests and abilities of women is tooffer a separate basketball team for women, then the institution must offer the separate team forwomen.

The standards for separate teams are somewhat different for contact sports and noneontactsports, The Title IX standards for noneontact sports vary, depending on whether or not overallathletic opportunities for women or men at the institution have been limited in the past. If an insti-tution has only one 1CM it a noneotitaet sport (tither for women or for men, but not both), itmust allow the other sex to eompete for 4 sport On this team only if overall athletit opportunitiesat the institution for the "excluded sex" have been "limited" in the past. In making this &terming-tion. it is important for institutions to examine athletic opportunities overall, rather than on asport-by-sport basis, Institutions might assos past femakonak intercollegiate participation ratios,the past budgets of female and male teams, and the MOON( or sports offered in the past to deter-mine if there have been limited opportunities for one sex.

If, for example, an institution has only a "men's" team in a nonerottact sport (such as traek),it MAI allow women to compete ror a spot on this teafit if overahlathletic opportunities for women41 that institution have been limited in the past. This same standard applies to men: that is, theymust he allowed to try out for women's teams if anti only lit:whin athletic opportunities for men41 the institution had been limited in the past. In practice theft AN few Institutions where the OVer.411 athletic opportunities for men have been less than those for women. Hence, even if there were nomen's tennis team, an institution would not have to allow a man to try out for the woman's tennisteam unless he could show that the overall athletic opportunities (not Just tennis opportunities) formen at that institution had been limited in the past Similarly, !ben must be allowed to try out (or

the women's volleyball team rink if overall athletic opportunities for men had been limited in thepast (even tr there were no m(011)110101 Wm at the niStitilitort);

FOr purposes of deciding whether 4 %WINO 1110A1 he allowed to cOMpete (Or 4 spot on a"nien's" team in a notWOritiO *port, intereollegiate atliktics shoula be considered separately fromclub and intramural attitelia. )or example, ir an inIthultion offered 4 noneontilet §1tort, suds 414gYninAsilieS or swimming, to men (but not women) at the intekolleglate level and to women only 41the dub or intrarntital level, women must he allowed to try mit for the "men's" intrreollegiate tramif the overall athletic opportunities for women at the institntion had been limited in the past, Also,

even ii An institution has in the past provided the same ntuntser of ituratmoul actiVitiel (or women

as it has interfolkOate aCtnithe* t'Ot Men, for porpows of Title IX, atliktic opportunities for women

2,

If tin institution has Only a "men's team" in a nOlICOntav I port, it can preclude svotiwn fronttrying out for it only it' U eau demonsttate that overall athletie opportunities for women have notbeen limited io the past,

Also, in a speMic mincontaet sport. if an institution has separate teams for women and men, itcan limit women to tryine out for the "woolen's teams" and men to trying out for thr "men'steams." For example, an institution colik/ prohibit (but is not required to prohibit) a female switfl .mer from trying out for thc nicn's swimming team if the institution had a woman's swimming team.If an imtitution wished to, it could institute a policy or standard analogous to that used when thereis only onr We' team in a noneontact sport. That is, the institution could allow the sexwhich had previously been offered limited athletic opportunities to compete kir spots on reamsoperated for the other sex (but not vice versa). Although institutions have the option of adoptingthis policy. the decision of whether o: not to do so should be made in hght of thr overall equalopportunity requircments of Title IX.

For contact sports (sueh ;IS football) an institution may ptohibit ft woman from trying out forthe "men's" team, even it' overall athletic opportunities for women at the institution have beenited in the past, Similarly, a man could be prohibited from trying out for the women's basketballteam (since the regulation defines basketball as a contact sport), even if he could show that theoverall athletic opportunities for men at that institution had been limited in the past.

The Title IX regulation defines contact sports as boxing, wrestling. rugby. ice hockey, football.basketball, and "other sports the purpose or mAjor activity or which involves bodily contact."Sports such as softball and baseball are not contact sports under Title IX. However, beyond this.IIEW has not elearly defined whieh. if any. sports, in addition to those specifically mentioned in theregulation. it consider?: he contact sports." Ilan institution believes that designating a sport oscontaet sport ("the purpose or major aetivity of which involves bodily contact") will best forwardequal athletic opportunity, it should ask IIFW's Offiee for Civil Rights to make a determinatirm asto whether ot not that sport is a "eontact sport" under Title IX. In the absence of -well a determina.lion by !I'M institutions should assume that the sport in question is not a contact sport. (And,hence. if an institution offers only one single-sex ream in this spOrr, persons Of the opposite Sex cantry out rot the team if their previous metall athletic opportunities at the institution have been Inn.ited

It shimild be noted that, whi!e Title IX allows separate teams for women and men in contiwtWorts. tt doo not require them, Institutions will wish to make such determinations based on theoverall equal a thktie oppoolinity ptovisions of 'title IX,

Often, women's MIMShave been "allowed" to 04 pirc, and practice facihties only when thc men's teams 4i41 not want touse them: Fur esanipk, women's teams have often been scheduled to practice or compete at Mon-venient times or off-hours in ordet to kave the most desirabk facihties and times free foc competi-tion by Inett Motemer. Male teams haw sometimes ban permitted to have longet practice &essionsor seasons al the epense of practice or competitive opportunities for the women's WM: Addi-tionally, the process for scheduling games, as well as the degree of lead time in scheduling games,ha§ often been quite diffetetit for women's and ttiett'5 teams:

FACILITIES: LOCKER ROOMS, PR Amu. AND COMPETITIVE VACUITIES

The Title IX regulation (in section 86,41(c)) lists the "provision or locker rooms, practice andcompetitive facilities" us one of the factors which the Director of HEW's Office fot Civil Rights"will consider" in determining whether or not an institution is providing female and male athleteswith overall equal opportunity.

Additionally, the regulatioa (in section 86,33) provides the followiag regarding "comparablefacilities" for women and men:

A tecipient itistitution I may provide ,sepatate tullet, lbeket WW1, and3:tower facilities on the basis of sex, but such facilities provided for students ofole sex shall be comparable to such facilities provided for students of the other

VGA,: si

have often been treated as second.class citizens in terms of the facilities whichthe ittsilt61--, otosikkd to them. In the past it has been conanonplace for the old gymnasium tobe "retire tile women when a new one became available to men and for women's teams to havefewer aim di;. imble competitive, practice, locker, and shower facilities. In some instances thelack of on: shower, or Watt faciPtics (or the lack of supervision in these facilities) has beenused as a jtuta'ication for denying women equal opportunity in athletics or in other areas. Althoughsingle-sex List ui such facilities is permissible, it is not similarly permissible to use this lack of facili-ties as a ittitification ror discrimination.

Unde 1 itk IX all facilities must generally be available without discrimination on the basis ofsex. Locker vionts, toilets, showers, and other facilities available to women and men must be com-parable, A c10,2 inspection of the facilities which women's and men's teams use, as well as a carefulanalysis of the access of each female and male team to various facilities and any related services, isnecessary in order to assess whether or not there is dir.rimination in this area.

Strategies for Equal Opportunity

If an institution rinds sex bias in the provision of, or access to, sports facilities, it might con-skier the following alternatives:

Develop a uniform institutional policy regarding the use of all sports facilities, making cer-tain that both sexes have equal access to these facilities and are equally involved in makingdecisions regarding the use and scheduling of these facilities.

Implement specific procedures to carry out this policy. For example, form an institutionalsports facilities policy committee, with equal representation from the women's and men'sathletic programs, to coordinate the use and scheduling of these facilities, Alternatively,this sports facilities policy committee might be composed of, or include, persons who arenot directly connected with the conduct of athletics. Whatever the composition of thiscommittee, care should be taken to assure that it does not permit sex discriminatory accessto facilities.

Remodel facilities, and/or extend partitions, curtains, dividers, etc., so that facilities can beused by either or both sexes.

Reschedule the use of facilities so that both women and men use facilities at prime (andnon-prime) times.

46

Arrange locker room and other supervisory schedules so that students are not tionled equalathletic opportunity because or less supervision or the unavailability or supervision. lmpkmeth alternative supervisory methods (e.g., using other employees or graduate or other stu-dents as supervisors) in the interim if there is the possibility that supervisory difficultieswould limit athletic opportunities on the basis of sex,

Sloteover, 1 itle IX (as w:di 4 S MOOCt Of Oti rOci,11 and State provisions) prohibits oneettiployment disonoination on the basis of s in covered institwions. tettol:009$ra...I8 arid Sn..51 hoosigh 8(1,10 ) desfailTs in some detail the specific prohibitions against sex dis-crimination in student employment, employment critaia, recruitnwnt, compensation. job classifi-cation and structure, fringe benefits, marital and parental status, the effect of State or likal law; orrequirements, advertising, and pre-employment inquiries. (Additionally, the regulation allows sex asa bona fide occoparionA qualification (or a togi occupations.) The 3.year "adjustment period" thatapplies to athletie programs affecting shulents does not apply to emir/opting discrirninatiim inthese programs;

Additionally, 1.1wcofive Order I 12,Io prohibits employment disciiminat oo the basis of sex.tace, color, religion, or national origin hy Vedeial collo-mots.

Thete have been decision; under the 1qual Pay Aet in which the courts have, for equalpay purposes, compared the salaries of female Ind male coaches in similar, as wdi as identical, jobs(e,g., the salary of a female softball coach has been compared to that or a male baseball coach).MorvoNcr, ir male coaches as a itroup are consistently paid at a higher rate than female coaches as agroup, the question of a pattern of disc tiMination Anws.

Discrimination against (Men athletic admittistrators and coaches has, perhaps more strikinglythan atty other fortn of employment discrimination, a dual impact: in addition to discriminatingagainst the women employee, the woman student suffers as well because college athletics are oftensegregated by sex, Vor oomph!, if the coach of the women's basketball team also has to coach fieldhockey WO teach two classes, She. 4...annut tit! eXnCeted to NOVit10 the tome quality of coaching toher 'telltale Sttnklits and teato members that the coach of the inen's basketball tem (who Coachesbaske(ball roll time and has three assistant coaches) is able to provide to his funk team members:

In the past many athletic programs have followed a policy of hiring only women to coachwomen and only men to coach melt llowever, it is becoming increasingly clear that such a distinc-tion is not permissible under the legislation prohibiting employment dhcritnination, including Titlelx

Although 'title VII or the 1%4 Civil Riglth Act pennih employers to limit a job to one sex irthey kan ,,ntns7 wsi is a "innin Ink occupational qualification" (100, the courts have inteopteted this exemption vety uattowly, lor example, acceptabk bfoq's have incloded "lingerie fitter"and "testroom attendant" provided the attendant is in the restmom while it is in use. It is doubtfulthat sex could ever be justified as an acceptable "hfoq" for coaching or training jobs, since studentor other assistance can be secured for locker room supervisicm. While the rights of privacy .of bothemployees and students would be protected (i.e., women and men ate not required to use the samebathroom or locket room at the same time), the lack of facilities cannot be used as a justificationfor excluding one sex or the other,

A word of eautiOn is in order- regardiiii: the criteria which an institution UseS for hiring coaches.Because or past dkointinatkm and limited oppottunities, women often terve not had the sameopporiunities as tnen to amass the experience or credentials whkh institutions often use to evaluatecoaching proficiency, rot example, a 'norther of seemingly neutral criteria (such as playing on achampionship intercollegiate team or being recommended by a prominent football coach), whichmay he predictive of coaching success for men, are not likewise predictive or coaching success forwomen (since there have been fewer championship events for women and since football coaches areunlikely to know the women athletes on campus). Similarly, hiring "overqualified" candklates (e.g.,candidatea who have 20 years of coaching experience) may lead the inatitution to hire only malecoaches, since Mete have been few coadOng paha for women ontil recently. Indeed. if such criteriawere used to make tonne decisions, they would undoubtedly exclude most women, including manysuperb sslitinen icts:Utim from coasideration for the joh. tising criteria which have a disproportion-ate impact on women which ,annot tie nistined by business necessity might well be ruled discrim-Otiosity under the vations laws prohibiting sex discriminatiim in employment.

In order to avoid using criteria which disproportionately exclude women, institutions shouldlook for alternative measures whiLlt are predictive of coaching ability for women, as well as men.

In order to Wilily and ternedy such disertmination, InstitUtiOn0 11111St thoroughly review theathletic employment situation on their campus for women and men and, where necessary, nakeadjustments to assure nondiscrimination. Many institutions will undoubtedly have already medesuch comparisons in developing an affirmative action plan under Executive Order 11246, or inbringing (heir institution into compliance with the nondiscrimination provisions of the Equal PtyAct of 1963 and Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

An institution must remedy any past patterns of employment discrimination it identifies.Appropriak remedies could include raiaing the salaries of women to the level of men in compatrnlejobs, equating fringe benefits or altering job ladders so that women 141V not diodvantaged, (Notethat lowering, rather than raising, minks to remedy discrimination is not acceptable under the law.)Even it the institution can demonstrate overall "equal athletic opportunity" for studeatts, it cannotkgally continue employment discrimination. The 3-year "adjustment period" that applies to ath-ktic programs affecting student* dots noi apply to employment discrimination in these programs.

AWARDS AND RECOGNITION

The regulation (in section 86.41(c)) specifies that, in addition to those items listed in the equalopportunity "laundry list," the Director of HEW's Office for Civil Rights will consider "other fac-

tors" in determining whether or not an institution is providing female and male athletes with overallequal opportunity. One of those factors might be whether athletic awards and institutional recogni-tion for athletic participation are equally available to women and men.

The Title IX regulation generally prohibits sex discrimination in programs or activities whichthe institution provides or significantly assists. Specifically, the regulation (in section 86.31(a)) pro-vides that:

Except as provided elsewhere in / the Title IX regulation! , no person shall, onthe basis of sex, be excluded from participation In, be denied the benefits of, orbe subjected to discrimination under any academic, extracurricular, research,occupational training, or other education program or activity operated by arecipient I institution! which receives or benefits fmm Federal financial assist-ance.

Additionally, the regulation (in section 86.31(b)) lists some specific prohibitions, stating that:

Except as provided in this subpart /of the regulation/ , in providing any aid,benefit, or service to a student, a recipient /institution! shall not, on the basisof sex:

( Treat one person differently from another in determining whethersuch person satisfies any requirement or condition for the provision of suchald, benefit, or service;

(2) Provide different ald, benefits, or services or provide ald, benefits, orservices in a.different manner;

(3) Deny any person any such ald, benefit, or service;

(7) A Id or perpetuate discrimination against any person by providing sig-nificant assistance to any agency, organization, or person which discriminateson the basis of sex in providing any ald, benefit or service to students or em-ployees;

(8) Otherwise limit any person in the enjoyment of any right, privilege,advantage, or opportunity.

Discussion

It is not uncommon for an institution, as a benefit of participating in intercollegiate athletics,to provide student athletes with awards or other recognition. When such awards are provided, theyare often provided to male teams or male athletes only. In other instances, the awards or forms ofrecognition available to the men's teams arc more valuable, more desirable or more prestigious thanthose available to women's teams.

While such awards are often a very small part of the athletic budget, they may be Importantsigns to the campus community of the value which the institution places on athletic participationby women and/or men. Hence, if an institution finds that it is not providing equal awards and

93

132

recognition to female and nude athletes, publicly equalizing these awards can be an important signto WORM and men on clunpus that the institution is attempting to rectify past inequities.

Strategies for Equal Opportunity

if an institution finds that It k not providing mud opportunit 0 women regarding athleticawards and recognition, it might con;ider taking (he followlairrgvps;

Provide additional mechimisms tes. , regular meetings,. joint colimittees) for persons makingdecisions regarding awards and rf .,..ignition to ferrule and male athletes to work together toarrive at common standards for a detic awards ancrecolnition.

Require that all awards and recognition to both t.!,..a iltk and milt: athletes be cleared througha central committee oi office within the instaulion. Thti.$ committee/office should beequally representative of women and men and Ix, chatod with identifying sex based inequi-ties and reconnnending (and implementing) cfmniAcs tt.-.:medy these inequities.

Otherwise coordinate the process of deciding whiUtt itlakites should get what awards/recog-nition, with women and men participating equally 1ne admimstration of such awards andrecognition, making clear that all such recognition am .-.varch are institutional.

increase the number of awards and recognition to worrin's teams.

Strategies. for Equal Opportunity

gn institution rinds that it is not providing -qui opportunity for womtn's rnt men's pro-grams to receive and benefit from various other support services, it might consider taking the fol-lowing stem:

Increase the support services available to the women's program.

Consolidate the provision of support services for both women's and trien's programs, withboth women and men participating equally in the administration of these services. The cen-tralized provision of these support services might be jointly administered through the 'worn-en's tinti men's athletic departments, by the portion of the university which provide+ thekfflOts Of by some neutral third party. The Office Of committee which provrdes these sowices should have a clear mandate not to discriminate on the basis of sex and to week toremedy the lingering effects of past inequities.

Reschedule wit wrvicci k0 that women's and men's programs taw equal access to them.

Provide opportunities for the winien's and men's programs to share such services wheneverpossible.

Additkmally, the "Sports Mcmotandiun" sass that "educational inoitutions ate riot loolifedto duplicate their men's program for woolen."

DiNahlit)11

Al present the majority of colleges operate their women's and men's athletic programs sepa-rately, Often these departments Ate quite different io philosophy, emphasis, sttuctute, and histoti-cal development, Many women's athletic programs grew out of; am+ 3te still closely lied to. physi,cal _educatkin mop-anis. with the troth that their maim emphasis is on instruction:, student partitppation, and lifetime spoils. Its contrast, many irdercollegiate athletics programs for men have devaoped fairly independently of the nien's physical education program and have hxused heavily onhigh level cotopetitirm and !Mut sports,

While these two hasittioos :ate oot ocs.essards oolutraaidory, they base often lest to the doll,opment O prooams tot women and men in the same institution which atr sthlsiitgly different. IlseTitle IN regulation does not dehne these differences as inherently discriminatory: The overall provision of equal oppostunity is what determines whether Or not an institution's athletic: program is incompliance with Title 1X. Title IX permits institutions to maintain multiple administrative sttue-litteli V) lung as thew strucilliC; 4111 MO Icad rlis.41111111141.0ty prOgtattiS 01 dilpctitMllatPrY VMplgy,merit opporiondir,.

In order to assess metafl equality of opportunity. however, it is necessati to esamine theorganization and scope of women's and men's athletic programs closely. Widely divergent Wm.-tures, responsibilities, and opportunities may requite that an institution realign the administrativestructures a women's and men's programs.

Many iA ntnen In athktivs ate vowelised that a merger tuf the administrative sloietutes forwouretels and men's, athletics would mean a subonetm, They (CO ifrat women would toth he de-raottri to "assistants 19 OW Jthlelik dItces01" OW /OW 4hatclier (00110111ry now have over wont.tn's IsprutS, They p.49nt to ifernifucrittr whidi b MOW, W.-Wing OW the progtanis a44Olio of worieo's athletics have 4Pttl hoSi gtoufld as a result of the tnergm They also thaw analogies

between their Laurent situation and the demothm or termimition of many black educators whenblack and white SCIMol SystCIII% were desegtegated alter the passage of the NM Civil flights Act,

If; however, an institution is exploring merging the administration of the wornen's and men'sathletic programs, the "Sports Memorandum" notes that it tnust undertake a comprehensive studyto "assess the effects on employees" of the proposed change. Additionally, the institution shouldthoroughly explote the possible "iiilverse effects" or merger on the athletic opportunities for wont .en students and the programmatic values and philosophy of the women's and tnen'a programs>

117 k2unducting this assessment, an institution should solicit the views and advice or remale andmale administrators and athletes, as well as other institutions which have faced similar questions,Then it should develop a comprehensive written and public implementation plan and scheduleperiodic review?* of the plan to IISUre that the rights of women (or men) are not compromised. Ifany change in administrative structure has a "disproportion4tely adverse effect" on members of onewx, it would violate 1 ttk IN;

s ;minks of changes which would have a "dispropottionatdy adverse effect" On WOItICIImight inclumle time followinir II metaing the admmistration of the women's and men's program%resulted in the automatic denmtion of time current WOmtlen'. s athletic director to "assistant director";if women as a grouts were fired, de:noted, Or otherwise placed in a less fivOrable employment posbflan as a result of the merger; if merger resulted in fewer jobs in coaching or athletic administrationfor women; or if the practical effect of merger were to require women to accept the "male model"of athletics.

If aft institution retains separate administrative structures for women's and men's athletics, itshould evaluate thew structures to determine if they provide equal employment opportunitiestegardiess of sex and if their roles, resources, 0.- I, access to top administratUm are relatively equal.In a nuntflor nt insfitUtions, the administrators the women's program do not have the same sup .port services, av,-.-,qc. to the president, etch as the administrators of the men's program.

It should elhO be noted that, while it is permissible under Title IX to have separate structuresfor the ,:,onduct of single-sex competitive athletic opportunities for students, these structures cannot

Provide an additional mechanism (cI., a joint committee or regular meetings) to facilitatecommLnication between the women's and men's programs.

Centraliie, integrate, or merge some functions, short of merging the women's and men'sdepartmvuir. Aspects of athletic programl which lend themselves to this type of mergerindude the use of equipment, facilites, and supplies; !Oieduling or game and practice times;travel arrangements; medical, health, and tr ;info% facilities and *mkt% and publicity,

study the posaility nf merging the -Amin :stratum of the women's and men's athletic pio .grams. paying nwial attention to whether 4-.14 MA Midi a merger would haVO a "dispropor.tionatcly adverse effect" on women.

Should the institution decide to merge the women's and 11101145 departments, develop a writ-ten mid public merger plan Outlining the proposed changes, reorganization,ihe rationale forthe changes, the anticipated merger timetable, etc. Prior to the implementation of any mer-ger, female and male employees and students, as well as concerned campus and communityorganizations, should have the opportunity to comment on the proposal,

ASSOCIATION AND SPORTS GO'VER NINIG ORGANIZATIONS

Although Title IX does not address the role of athletic associations and sports governing organ-izations in detail, the regulation (in section 86,6(c)) does state that:

Tht, obligation to comp& with I the nondkcrimination requirements ofTitle /X/ Is not obviated or alleviated by any rule or regulation of any organI-2,athm, club, athletic or other league, or association which would rouler anyapPlicant or stmknt ineligible to participate or limit the eligibility or participa-tion of any applicant or student, mi the basis of sex, in any e(lucation programor activity operated by a recipient and which receives or benefits from Federalfinancial assistance,

Title IX also forbkls institutions front providing "significant assistance" to organizations orassodatk)m which dkcrimina iv against students on the basis of sex in violaliOn of the standards setforth in the regulation, Specifically, the regulation (in section 86,31(b)(7)) forbkls institutions

MO or perpetual( ingl I sex discrunination against any person by provid-ing significant assistance to any agency, organization, or person which discrimi-nates on the basis of sex in providing any aid, benefit or service to students oremployees.

Additionally, the "Sports Memorandum" slates that "educational institutions are not requiredto duplicate their men's programs for women,"

Discussion

Currently there are different national associations governing intercollegiate competition forwomen's and men's athletics, In 2- and 4-year colleges and universities the Association for Intercol-legiate Athletics for Women (MAW) governs competition for women, while the National Asso-ciation of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association(NCAA) are the primary national governing bodies for men, The MAW and the National JuniorCollege Athletic Association (NJCAA) govern competition for women at the junior and conmiunitycollege level; the NJCAA governs competition for men at this level.

The same reasoning that HEW outlined in the "Sports Memorandum" regarding administrativestructures for the conduct of women's and men's athletics can also he applied to separate athleticassociations governing women's and men's athleties, That is, "institutions are not precluded" fromparticipating in such separate associations if any separate womas and men's athletic teams exist,and proposed changes in these affiliations should be carefully assessed to determine the effects onstudents and employees. The interests and abilities of female and male students, as well :Is the levelsof competition and selection or sports, should be considered in evaluating any proposed changes inassociation membership or affiliation. Changes whicli have a "disproportionately adverse effect" onwomen should be avoided,

The Title IX regulation does not deny individual institutions the flexibility to develop theirown women's and men's athletic programs, as long as the institution's total program ensures bothwomen and men an equal opportunity to compete in athletics in a meaningful way. However,membership in sports governing assothtions does not change the institution's obligation to provideboth overall equal athletic opportunity to students and equal employment opportunity regardless ofsex.

I l I

Strategivi for Equal Opportunity

r an institution wishes to evaluate the effect or athletic associations and sports governing Wisu-clations on equal opportunity for students or employees, it might consider taking the followingsteps;

Carefully assess or evaluate the effects or both current and proposed affiliations on equalopportunity for students and employees, considering suclt factors as the interests and abili-ties of both sexes, the levels or competition, the selection or sports, and the length or season.

Develop a written and public plan outlining any proposed changes and the rationale forthese changes, providing female and male employees and students, the commission on thestatus of women, student and faculty governing organizations, as well as others concernedabout equal athletic opportunity, the opportunity to comment on this plan prior to itsimplementation,

Unequal aggregate expenditures for members of each sex or unequal expendi-tures for male and femak teams if a recipient operates or sponsors separateteams wIll not constitute noncompliance with this section, but the Director lofIIEW"s Office for Civil Rights/ may consider the failure to provide twcessaryfunds for terms for one sex in assessing equality of opportunity for members ofeach sex,

The "Sports Memorandum" plovides additional information regarding Title IX's treatment ofintercollegiate athletic finances. In discussing Title IX coverage of those athletic funds providedneither directly by the government nor directly by the institution, thc "Sports Memorandum"states:

These sections apply to each segment of the athletic program of a fed-erally twisted educational instituthm whether or not that segment is the sub=ket of direct financial support thmugh the fkpartment Thus, the fact that aparticular sepnent of an athletic program is supported by funds received fmmvarious other sources (such as student fees, general revenues, gate receipts,alumni donations, booster clubs, and mot-profit foundations) does not removeit from the reiteh of the statute and lime of the regulatory requirements

Me "Sports Memorandum" further darifio, Title X's impact on this area. stating that:

While the impart of expenditures for sex identifiabk sports programsshould be carefully considered in determining whether equal opportunity inathletics exists for both sexes, equal aggregate expenditures for male and fe-male teams are not required. Rather, the pattern )fs expendittites should notresult In a disparate effect on opportunity. Recipients must not dherffitinate tntthe basis of sex in the provision of necessary equipment, supplies, *dines, andpublicity for sports program The fact that differences ftt expenditures mayoceiti because of varying costs. attribuotbk to differences in equipment require-ments and levels of spectator intettll does not obviate in anv way the respombbility of educational institutions to pimde equal oppommity

There are few areas which arc as widely discussed and little understood as the funding of inter-collegiate athletics, Indeed, entirely apart from the issue of equal opportunity for women, manyinstitutions ow now taking a closer look at their athletic budgets because of inflation, rising costs,declining student ot spectator interest, and/or declining student enrollments, III his I ieport tothe Ainerican Council on klueation, (korge !Lanford reported that a mimber of key segments ofthe acadcmie 0.)1111111111ity WM! keenly concerned about athletic., finances.* Ile found the folkiwingattitudes, some confirming and some eontradiding conventional wisdom:

Contrary to popular opinion, there is

only "a small anti statistically insignificant positive relatiomhip" between the institution'swets% in athletics and its suCCOSS in securing appropriations from the MAW, "Mho impactof winning teams on the fituncial disposition of legislators is virtually imperceptible," We

can expect "new and greater state attention to budgets, by legislators who decry thc declineor local rekvance. and by statewide governing boards whose 'preoccupation with costreduction' will inevitably lead them to college sports."

College presidents: "Recent generations of eollege presidents have continued generally toignore the responsibility for the ethical conduct of college sports whkh an earlier generationabdieated.

Although whether or not a sport makes a profit is clearly not the standard for determiningequal opportunity, a great deal of speculation about the "profitability" of the so-called revenueproducing sports has twconipanieil discussions of Title IX and athletics, During 1975 Congressionalhearings on Title IN, the difficulty of tracing the dollars which support athletic progrants becameapparent, 1:or example,'a substantial amount of the NSources and staff which an athletic programuses may be entirely provided by another part of the university and, as such, may never appear inthe athletic budget. In testifying before the Senate Subcommittee on Education, Donna Loplano(director of intercollegiate athletics for women at the University of Texas at Austinr provided thefollowing insight into the economics of big (ime college athletics:

Let's take a closer look at the University of Texas') $2.4 million men'sathletic program which is often considered a prime example of an athletic pro-gram supported through income derived from big-time football. Believe it ornot a wuni case can be made that football at the University of Texas at Austinunder one of the finest football coaches in the country is not even profit mak-ing, Is'hen the cost of administrative and support personnel salaries, coaches'salaries, wages, operating expenses, scholarships, utilities, public relations,office supplies, telephone, salary benefits, insurance, maintenance, programs,cheerleaders, band, astroturf and allocation for budget adjustment costs aretaken into consideration the $1,6 million In revenoes solely produced by UTfootball are also solely spent on that same football program which costsapprox-imately $1.6 million to ron. If you go one step further in the assessment ofcosts to the University and consider the amortl:ation of a 75,000 seat stadium,football is costing the University of Texas a great deal more money than therevenue ft purportedly generates. We may then comlude that the total athktiepnnteam is hot dependent on revenues derived from football gate receipts but iseither dependent on 5450.000 in Income whkh is derived from an optional $20student fee which provkles free admission to all athletic events or from themoney the University provides for capital expenditures which in turn freesother mottles for operating expenses unit:orlon, What on the surface gives theillusimt of profit or net itteeme, is nothing more than cash flow being used foroperating expenses it dl depends on how you wish to intermet the data. Weknow that we ran use Mathes to support almost any proposition. What 1 antsuggelling is that the Tower Amendment Iregarding Title IX coverage of"revenue producing" sports/ has found it convenient to maintain the myththat biptitne football and basketball are not only revenue producing. but profitmaking enkrprises which support all other Mims in the athletic program, 746areept this aktumptitm as valid wont., u wave eoltit we ape Aimply not used

The Tide IX teguiatt n's coverage of athletics is based on the assumption that tot institutioncan provide muality ot oppornmity without esact equality of expenditure. The regulation makesOrar that institutional compliance with the Title IX standards in athletics does not demand dolhir.for-dollar matching expenditures for each sex. (Nor, (or that Mailer, tinea the reantation forbid aninstitution litsrls unPlementing a dollapior-dollar standard on its own.) Koller, the oppommittesprovided for *Innen and tilers are the major criteria for determining whether or /Mt MI institution isproviding citoal Atiskiie oppornmity under the gandarati ;et forth In the Title IX regulation, Whilethe regulmion esplicitly at:Sett Ma rearlife eltrivaknt expenditure* for each 40%, ill*paritfr* in ex-penditures as theS" relate to incquahlies in opportunities (Or males and females may he one factorin deteinuning whether or not pportimitio are eqiial,

In evaluating inequities in opportunity whieli result from inequities in funding, institutionsshould keep in mind that they must compare the total women's program to the total men's pro-grain, That is, all male sports (including basketball, football and otlur mecalled revenue pro(lucingsports) must be compared with ull Emile sports to determine if, overall, the institution IS providingequal opportunity. le assessing whether an institution is complying with the athletic provisions ofTitle IX. the so-called revenue producing sports and funds derived from private sources are consid-ered in the same manner as other sports and funds. Also, contact and noneontuct sports are evalu-ated together, not separately, in all equal opportunity comparisons under Title IX.

While funding is not the government's primary measure of equality in assessing Title IXcoin-pliarce, those persons evaluating equal opportunity must have a full understanding of their institu-tion's'funding mechanisms and priorities, as well as of the differential amounts of resources avail-able to wOlnen's and men's programs, if they arc to ask meaningful questions and arrive at mean-ingful answers,

The process of undertaking and completing such an analysis is not likely to be simple. Atmany institutions the funding or athletics is intricately interwoven with the funding of other aspectsof the institution and on many campuses the sources of funds for the women's athletic programs aredramatically different from those for the men's program. Vor example, funds for athletic activities(for women and/or men) may come from student activity fees, a line item in the institution's budg-et, a special appropriation from the state legislature, revenues from television or radio contracts,athletic booster clubs, institutional athletic foundations, earmarked contributions, assessments ofstudents for "capital improvements" (e.g., an athletic stadium), ticket sales, or the instititution'sphysical education budget. The different funding patterns are practically limitless. In some institu-tions. for example. outside bootter clubs are the primary vehicle for distributing athletic scholar-ship money to male athletes. While differences In the source of funds for women's and men's pro-grams make analysis of equal opportunity difficult in some instances, the source of financing is notrelevant in determining an institution's coverage by, or compliance with. Title IX.

Similarly, the level and pattern of expenses for women's and men's sports often differ greatly,even within the mme institution or for the same sport. In George Hanford's 1974 -study for theAmerican COUtiell on Education, he estimated that the average budget of women's departments wasequal to only 2 percent or the men's budgets. Although the budgets for women's athletice have gen-erally increased somewhat since then, they still clearly lag far behind the budgets tor men's athkticson most campuses.

In addition. the financial enntrol and budgeting authority or the women's and men's athleticdepartments have often been quite different. It should be noted that Title IX does not address theinternal budgetary process ot institutions unless that pfoeeSs Is lIscrlmninatory on the basis or scxrind does not afford equal opportunity on the bask or seX.

Strategies for Equal Opportunity

After evaluating the funding process for both women's and men's intercollegiate athletics, aninstitution nnght wish to consider taking the following steps if it finds sex-based inequities whichresult from the Wiling process itself or the levels or amounts of funding provided for women's andmen's programs=

Schedule joint fundraising activities for women's and men's teams.

Consolidate or centralize the funding process for women's and man's athletics, taking careto IMMO that women and men have equal representation and decision making authority.This could be done, for example., through joint action by the women's and men's depart-ments or the office of the university official responsible for athletics. The office or com-mittee which coordinates this centralized funding process should have a clear mandate notto discriminate on the basis of sex and to implement funding patterns which eliminate bothdiscriminatory funding patterns and the effect of past discriminatory funding of athleticprograms.

Reallocate funds so that the inequities arc elimMated.

Institute cost saving methods or systems for both women and men. For example, Joint pur-chase of equipment, supplies, uniforms, etc. might enable the institution to save money byordering in bulk, in addition to saving administrative and clericaltime. This freed timecould, in turn, be used to advance efforts to provide equal opportunities.

Revise the flinding process so that it does not have the effect of providing discriminatoryopportunities.

Survey the athletic program to identify any possible -frills" which might be eliminated.

If a significant amount of tile funds for the athletic program comes from outside sources(such as a ltooster club, an educational foundation, earmarked donations, etc.), undertake athorough study of these funding sources to determine such things as; what services they pro-vide to (and receive from) the institution; if their financial contributions benefit male overfemale teams; and how they operate within the institution's structure. Although such fundsdo not exempt all or part of the institution's athletic program from Title IX, a thoroughunderstanding of these organizations can assist the institution in providing overall equal ath-letic opportunity.
