You have just been named athletics director at a high-profile
university. It comes to your attention that your institution may be in
violation of Title IX based on the lack of participation opportunities
that are available for female student–athletes, but the institution does
not have the resources to add another sport. What actions would you
take as the newly hired athletics director? Would you consider cutting a
sport during your first or second year in the position or asking the
student body to help fund an additional women’s sport by asking the
president or board of trustees to raise student fees? Additionally, you
notice that some of your athletics facilities are not compliant with ADA
regulations and are outdated. How would you address these issues?
