It’s not just about sports!Title IX states:
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.

While it is often thought of as a law that gives women equal opportunities in athletics, Title IX is about so much more. Title IX also covers admissions, financial aid, housing, educational programs, campus safety (including sexual assault), and sex discrimination.
In honor of the 40th anniversary of Title IX, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on this major milestone.
