The Title IX Enforcement Issue Reaches NPR

couple of weeks back, we pointed to a Boston Globe story by John Powers on how budget pressures and Title IX compliance requirements were leading schools to eliminate a raft of men’s athletic programs. This past Saturday, Powers was on WBUR-FM, National Public Radio‘s Boston affiliate, to talk about the issue in some detail with host Bill Littlefield on Only a Game.

We’d been lobbying him via Facebook and Twitter for several weeks ever since he had law professor Deborah Brake on as a guest to talk about her latest book on Title IX, and it’s clear to us that he’s open to honest dialogue.
