Feds looking into gender bias allegations in 13 areas at Iowa

Can't happen unless you do it for football, too. Universities have to provide sport opportunities for an equal number of women as men. That is why there are a greater number of women's sports available than men's. Even then there are so many more men on a football roster than any other sport that it is still very one sided.

Do it for all sports.

Title IX has two methods for achieving equality. The harder one is based upon the student body's interest in participation. If you took a poll of all ~30k students at the university to determine desire to participate in varsity sports. You can then take the fractional difference between men and women in that group to determine the number of scholarships for each.

But that is hard to do as the ratios would change semester to semester and you can't just spin up or down Varsity sports quickly. So they just do the easier way to meet the requirements, which is the 50/50 split.
 
OK, let's take a vote. All those in favor of institutionalized sexual prejudice, raise your hands. Then catch the next flight to Saudi Arabia and live your dreams. Otherwise, stop getting your panties in a bunch and let the legal process play out the way it's supposed to. It's the American way, after all.
 
Why bring reason into this? It's obvious liberal media is destroying America. (BTW, I think this lawsuit is ridiculous too)

^^^THIS^^^^
Despite their efforts, the lefty, liberal louts have not succeeded in destroying America, yet.
America will prevail against this scourge, as well. For America is very, very strong, indeed.
This lawsuit is a JOKE, as well as being ridiculous
 
and the whole idea that someone that was having an affair with someone in the same department and was accused and shown evidence of abusing her players is somehow the VICTIM?

We know why of course- the Gay Mafia.

That kind of thinking is simply called 'liberal logic' LOL

Well, when a big democrat clown is faking it and running as a Republican , you can see why it has been such a disaster.

Trump is a lifelong democrat and I have zero doubt that democrats are helping to skew the polls and votes. The media and the left want nothing more than a trump republican nomination.
 
I am in favor of gender equality in the work place, but athletics is very different. I am not sure that I understand exactly what is expected for women in college athletics. I think that men's football, and to a lesser extent men's basketball, support all of the other sports. Maybe wrestling is self-supportive at Iowa??? So, what exactly is being expected of the athletic department? Are athletic departments actually expected to spend as much on women's athletic programs, which has minimal fan interest and generates very little revenue, as they spend on "comparable" men's programs.? Or, is this just a wrongful termination allegation...?

Great post! Our society continues to go crazy with a lack of common sense while pretending it is an equality issue.
 
And once again Title IX and the law of unintended consequences continue.

How many mens sports have been all but killed for club level womens teams?

Mens collegiate Gymnastics is on the death watch; mens wrestling teams have dropped by over half in the last 30 years.

And for club level womens teams that are nothing but a drain on the AD and are basically just there for a handfull of people. Just how big of a crowd does any womens sport draw outside of Basketball?

No men's sports have been eliminated for women's club teams.

Neither men's gymnastics or wrestling make money as a whole at any school.

Everyone is complaining about women's sports not making money which is true. However there are a lot men's sports that make no money, baseball, gymnastics, golf, track. If you get rid of sports based totally on economics then you have to get rid of a number of men's programs as well.

True.
 
Victim victim victim victim everyone is a victim. The federal liberal way is to make everyone equal which of course is illogical. To make them equal is to be unequal to those poor souls of privilege. Lol
 
I'd be interested to see if our wrestling program manages to make money this year after the meet at Kinnick. Even as the top attended program in the country, for a sport that doesn't even allow 10 full scholarships, it hasn't made a profit in a long time if ever.

That's why a lot of people want football exempted from Title IX at the ncaa level. It is often the only sport that makes money to enable the others to exist. In the big schools men's basketball will make money too. I'm not sure if there is another sport out there at any major school that makes money.
