Original intent of Title IX was to offer the same opportunities to women as the
men have. Admittedly, the courts have made it okay to lower men's opportunities as a form of equalization. In this case, total scholarships offered to both genders were to be equal. But what to do with Football, that was the question. Throw it out and not even count it? or drop men's sports totals to make it equal?

The latter prevailed. They tried to help things by making some sports equivalency sports, ie, you could give out a 1/2 scholie or whatever percentage you want, instead of a head count sport, where everyone gets a full scholie if they are on one at all.

Can you imagine what the gender transitioning will do to scholarships? Should I offer the trans-man-to-woman or the biological woman? What happened to equalization for women?

Grab some popcorn.
