A place on the team : the triumph and tragedy of Title IX, Welch Suggs

Creator
Summary
"A Place on the Team is the inside story of how Title IX revolutionized American sports. The federal law guaranteeing women's rights in education, Title IX opened gymnasiums and playing fields to millions of young women previously locked out. Journalist Welch Suggs chronicles both the law's successes and failures - the exciting opportunities for women as well as the commercial and recruiting pressures of modern-day athletics." "Enlivened with tales from Suggs's reportage, the book clears up the middle of interpretation and opinion surrounding. Title IX. It provides not only a lucid description of how courts and colleges have read (and misread) the law, but also compelling portraits of the people who made women's sports a vibrant feature of American life."--Jacket
