The positive effects of Title IX are easy to see when you look at the last 50 years. There are many more athletic – and educational – opportunities for women, including a significant increase in female STEM careers and university faculty positions. In 1972, about 300,000 women and girls were involved in college and high school sports in the United States. As of 2022, that number had risen to over 3.5 million. Gender issues are still a challenge, but Title IX is one law that has taken one big step in the right direction.
