TITLE: Sex Discrimination Against Students: Implications of
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.
YEAR PUBLISHED: 1975
NOTE: 33 p.; For related documents, see HE 007 323, 325-328
ABSTRACT: Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972
mandates that sex discrimination be eliminated in federally
assisted education programs. Title IX has significant
implications for a variety of issues including recruiting,
admissions, financial aid, student rules and regulations,
housing rules, health care and insurance benefits, student
employment, textbooks and curriculum, single-sex courses
and
women's studies programs. This document examines the
overall
implications of Title IX as well as the specific issues
that
affect virtually every school and college in the country.
It
attempts to provide insights into the scope and nature of
practices that discriminate against students on the basis
of
sex, and the changes in these practices that might well be
required for an institution to be in compliance with
federal
law. (Author/KE)

This is an ERIC database document. ERIC is the National
Education Information Network for providing ready access
to the literature of education -descriptions of exemplary
programs, research and development efforts, and related
information that can be used in developing more effective
educational programs. The ERIC database is currently
available on CD-ROM in the main library (ground floor of
