Title IX Poses a Particular Challenge at Predominantly Black Institutions.
Naughton, Jim
Chronicle of Higher Education, v44 n24 pA55-A56 Feb 20 1998
The high percentage of female undergraduate students at predominantly black colleges and universities makes it difficult for many Division I institutions to meet the male/female proportionality standards for athletics programs. Concentration of African-American athletes in just a few sports is also a factor. Some institutions are dropping sports with high proportions of African-American athletes to meet requirements. (MSE)
