Title IX at 50
50 years after its landmark passing, we gather to celebrate Title IX, taking a look at the legislation’s impact, especially when it comes to sports. We have assembled two outstanding panels who will each in their own ways, analyze what Title IX has meant for society, where we stand today, and what we can do to both sustain achievements and further advance the causes consistent with the legislation. Join us from 5pm to 7pm for two thought-provoking discussions.
This event has been brought to you by the FSC Sport Management Department and the FSC Athletic Department.
