A judge ordered Condordia University Irvine (CUI) to reinstate women's swimming, diving, and tennis during Title IX litigation. CUI should add about 100 roster spots for women - ie, form new teams to give women equal opportunity and comply with Title IX, not cut teams!

Beach volleyball players filed a Title IX lawsuit in response to Stephen F. Austin State U. cutting the team. SFA has shortchanged women athletes for years, recently by over 400 roster spots !

Graph shows that SFA provided women with only 211 roster spots in 2023 - 2024, when they should have provided women with 668 roster spots.

When it comes to recruiting, the gap is wider. Only 38 cents is spent on recruiting for women's teams for every dollar spent on men's teams.

Here is new data on how spending compares for college men's and women's teams. The law does not require equal spending. But schools are required to offer the same quality of benefits and services.
For every dollar spent on college men's teams, only 53 cents is spent on women's teams.
Graph shows spending on men's and women's college teams. $11.7 billion is spent on men's teams, while only $6.3 billion is spent on women's teams.

How is Title IX doing on its anniversary? Schools are supposed to provide roster spots for women equal to the percentage of students who are women. But there is still a gap of over 219,000 roster spots nationwide.

The University of Oregon is also not providing women with proportional athletic scholarships, as required by #TitleIX. They got $5.9m in 22-23, when they should have received $6.5m.

Oregon should be giving women 100 additional opportunities to play varsity sports, based on offering proportional opportunity, which #TitleIX requires.

Graph shows that at the U. or Oregon, in 2022-23 women got 308 roster spots. If they had been given proportional opportunity, as Title IX requires, they would have had 408 roster spots.
