Title IX is not about money.... it is about discrimination based on
sex. Think about men's athletics vs. women's athletics, when you were
in school.... any difference in funding from the school?


Sure the guys got more funding than the girls when I was in school,
because the guy's side of sports is more pupular, and it is still
today.

But now that you mention it, a lot of schools budgeting goes into the
sports program and in many cases academics suffer because of such.

But, what's new?

Now, the hammer is that if the school receives Federal Assistance, the
school can't treat the girls that way.

I guess, if you want to create a school and pay your own way, you can
be as discriminatory as you wish....
