That won’t be forgotten, even as we eagerly anticipate returning to the universities we love and the passion that is college athletics. With the COVID-19 pandemic forcing the cancellation of all competition following the second week of March, we will look back on 2019-20 with a certain sadness and thoughts of what might have been. At the same time, we will remember this year as one in which our student-athletes continued to excel in the classroom, and ACC teams again ranked among the nation’s elite on the fields and courts of play. The ACC’s unique blend of public and private institutions continues to lead the way academically among Autonomy 5 conferences. This was again demonstrated in the “Best Colleges” rankings released by US News & World Report, as the ACC was the only Autonomy 5 conference to place six of its member institutions among the top 30 and seven member schools among the top 40.

    1 June 30, 2021 Sent via email NCAA Board of Governors NCAA Attention: Chair John J. DeGioia Attention: President Mark Emmert Office of the President 700 W. Washington Street 204 Healy Hall P.O. Box 6222 37th & “O” Streets, NW Indianapolis, IN 46206 Washington, DC 20057-1789 Cc: NCAA Board of Governors, Felicia Martin, Donald Remy, Cari Van Sensus, Amy Wilson Dear Chair DeGioia, President Emmert & NCAA Board of Governors, We, the undersigned 2,702 individuals and 57 organizations, urge the NCAA leadership and Board of Governors to publicly release all findings and recommendations of the comprehensive review of gender equity issues in NCAA sports, conducted by Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP. Our understanding is that the first phase of this review is focused on basketball and includes an investigation into the disparities that were visible during the recent Division l tournaments, as well as systemic and structural issues within the sport, and a later phase includes a review of gender equity in other sports and championships governed by the NCAA. It is critical that the NCAA not only provide complete and full disclosure of the results of this review but also include specific, actionable next steps to ensure that there is accountability and meaningful change. We must seek to improve the systems and structures that have allowed such inequities to persist for so many years. The NCAA must regain public trust and confidence in its commitment to gender equity and investment in women’s sports and, particularly given the widespread public and social media scrutiny, this can only occur through transparency and actionable items.
