Supreme Court Says Title IX Covers Employment but Raises a Serious Question about the Future Impact of the Law.

Flygare, Thomas J.

Phi Delta Kappan, v64 n2 p134-36 Oct 1982

The Supreme Court recently decided that Title IX covers employment practices in schools and colleges; however, portions of the Court's decision (whether Title IX provides "institutionwide" or "program-specific" coverage) raise serious questions about the future of Title IX as a force for sex equity in education.
