    Summary Letter to Ohio Valley Conference Re COVID Title IX Beth

    June 26, 2020 Commissioner Beth DeBauche Ohio Valley Conference 215 Centerview Dr., Suite 115 Brentwood, TN 37027 Dear Commissioner DeBauche, We are a consortium of advocates for women and girls in sports. Access to and participation in sports improves the lives of all students, and that is particularly true for girls and women. During this time of COVID-19, we are writing to remind you of your institutional obligation to uphold Title IX.1 We understand that these are trying times for collegiate institutions, including athletics departments. In response to financial pressures, we have become aware that some universities are considering program cuts to their athletic programs.2 As the commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference, we ask that you be a leader in ensuring your conference and your 1 20 U.S.C. §§ 1681-1688. 2 Sallee, Barrett. “Group of Five Commissioners Ask NCAA to Relax Rules That Could Allow More Sports to Be Cut.” CBS Sports, April 15, 2020. Available at: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/group-of-five- commissioners-ask-ncaa-to-relax-rules-that-could-allow-more-sports-to-be-cut/. (Five Conferences—American Athletic Conference (AAC), Conference USA, Mid-American Conference (MAC), Mountain West Conference, and the Sun Belt Conference—formally requested the NCAA to lower the minimum team requirements for Division 1 membership. The NCAA subsequently denied their request.) See also: Hawkins, Stephen. “Slashed St. Ed's: Reeling School Cuts Teams, Breaks Hearts.” ABC News. ABC News Network, May 7, 2020.

  • Title IX Legal Memo Ohio Valley Conference Beth Debauche 6 26

    Title IX Legal Memo Ohio Valley Conference Beth Debauche 6 26

    To: Beth DeBauche, Commissioner, Ohio Valley Conference From: Nancy Hogshead-Makar, CEO, Champion Women Amy Poyer, Senior Staff Attorney, California Women’s Law Center Date: June 26, 2020 Re: Legal Memo, Title IX Athletic Department Compliance On June 23, 2020, Title IX celebrated its 48th anniversary. While collegiate sports participation opportunities are rare and rationed, serving just 3% of the student body nationally, these opportunities provide considerable life-long benefits for participants in educational attainment, employment, and health. Yet despite the strong statute, interpreting regulations, and case law, women lag behind men by all measurable criteria, including opportunities to play, scholarship dollars, and treatment, and those gaps are growing at an unrestrained clip. In athletic scholarship dollars alone, women lose almost $1 billion dollars annually, solely because they are women. And as this memo establishes, the metrics for women athletes are getting worse, not better. In the past, sport leaders have put the burden for change on their students, 18–22-year-old women, to bring lawsuits in order to enforce Title IX; to get their schools to add more sports and treat them with the same dignity afforded men. The dramatic discrepancies between men’s and women’s sports programming cannot be resolved through federal courts. Indeed, it is unfair to expect these young women to shoulder the responsibility to remedy the systemic, intentional sex discrimination that fundamentally characterizes intercollegiate athletics. This legal memo, and our supporting documents and data from the Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act (EADA), are part of Champion Women and the California Women’s Law Center’s efforts to remedy sex discrimination in athletic departments.

    Winter/Spring 2017

    THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE AT MARTIN CAMPUS SCENE ALUMNI MAGAZINE VOLUME LXII WINTER/SPRING 2017 Go Cruisin’ with Carver CHANCELLOR’S Dr. Keith Carver, UT Martin Chancellor CORNER In 1986, then-Gov. Lamar Alexander launched a yearlong celebration called Tennessee Homecoming. The focus was part history lesson, part community heritage, and the event was an opportunity to set future goals. For Hollianne and me, returning to our West Tennessee heritage is our Tennessee Homecoming 2017. We are excited to come back to a region where we were both born and raised, but we are most eager to work with the students, faculty, staff, alumni and all members of the University of Tennessee at Martin community. This is a special place. UT Martin has an established reputation throughout West Tennessee as a provider of an excellent education and an economic catalyst for growth in the region. It is my commitment to continue this tradition of serving students and partnering with civic, business and non-profit leaders across the region and state. Any homecoming contains a look back at the past and a glimpse ahead to the future; you can count on us to do both. As I travel the region, I want to hear what made your UT Martin experience special, and you can expect to hear from me often regarding current student, faculty and alumni successes. I will share these with you through the news, presentations, social media and alumni communications. Together, we will honor the past, celebrate the present and vigorously pursue educational excellence in the future. Hollianne and I are ready to begin our journey with you and the UT Martin community.
