[quote=Anonymous]With yearbooks having just been distributed it is fairly easy to asses if your kid’s school is in compliance with Title IX with respect to sports participation. Add up all the boys playing a freshmen, junior varsity and varsity sport, and do the same for the girls. Do not include activities that are not official “sports” (sideline cheer is not a sport, competitive cheer is a sport), intramural activities are not “sports”, but athletic contests that do not have official “state championships” can be sports (crew and water polo are pretty common examples). Do the numbers come out equal or not? How equal do you have to be? Pretty darn close. The Federal Sixth Circuit Court recently held Michigan State’s feet to the fire - requiring the college to establish another women’s sport when the count showed 18 more men athletes than women athletes. How is your kid’s high school doing? [/quote]
