SummaryOn June 23 1972, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 was passed into law. The law states simply that “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”(US Dept of Labor). Although the law was designed to broadly discourage sexual discrimination everywhere in society and initially made no reference to specific institutions or facets of society, the most widely debated impact that Title IX has had on our society has been the law’s effect on the dynamics of men’s and women’s college athletics
