Kuhn By MARY LYNN BRENNAN* I Introduction Sports reporting, long the province of male writers, is a major field of journalism that is now beginning to open up to women.2 But getting the job as a sportswriter is only half the battle. When sports teams deny women writers equal access to their locker rooms for post-game interviews, they deny wo- men an equal chance to compete with their male counterparts. In response to being barred from the New York Yankees locker room during the 1977 World Series, Melissa Ludtke, a sportswriter for Sports Illustrated, and its publisher, Time, Inc., brought a suit against the New York Yankees, Major League Baseball, and the City of New York.3 The 1978 suit, filed in the Southern District Court of New York, claimed that the New York Yankees were violating Ms.

    ABSTRACT No Women in the Press Box: A Case Study to Compare the Experience of Women in Print Sports Journalism from the 1980s and 2000s Chelsea Erin Quackenbush, M.A. Thesis Chairperson: Douglas R. Ferdon, Ph.D. This case study examines women sports writers in the 1980s and 2000s. The purpose of the study was to describe the perceptions of women sports writers’ in relationship to their professional and personal experiences in sports journalism, and how the field has changed in terms of gender relations, sexual harassment, and gender discrimination. Participants agreed that men and women are equal in terms of job duties, and they do not experience discrimination and harassment in the field. There is still progress to be made in terms of the number of women in sports journalism.

Eighth Street Stroudsburg, PA 18360 USA Tel: +1-570-476-8006 Fax: +1-570-476-0860 [email protected] ISBN 978-1-954085-38-1 ii Introduction Welcome to TextGraphs, the Workshop on Graph-Based Methods for Natural Language Processing. The fifteenth edition of our workshop is being organized online on June 11, 2021, in conjunction with the 2021 Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL-2021). The workshops in the TextGraphs series have published and promoted the synergy between the field of Graph Theory (GT) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). The mix between the two started small, with graph theoretical frameworks providing efficient and elegant solutions for NLP applications. Graph- based solutions initially focused on single-document part-of-speech tagging, word sense disambiguation, and semantic role labeling, and became progressively larger to include ontology learning and information extraction from large text collections. Nowadays, graph-based solutions also target on Web-scale applications such as information propagation in social networks, rumor proliferation, e-reputation, multiple entity detection, language dynamics learning, and future events prediction, to name a few. The target audience comprises researchers working on problems related to either Graph Theory or graph- based algorithms applied to Natural Language Processing, Social Media, and the Semantic Web. This year, we received 22 submissions and accepted 17 of them for oral presentation (12 long papers and 5 short papers).
