Weinberger Defends Title IX Rules on Athletic Equality
Health and Welfare Secretary Caspar Weinberger says new Title IX regulations do not require equal funding for male and female athletics but demand equal athletic opportunity for women. He rejects NCAA claims the rules upend university programs, noting the guidance lists facilities, coaching, schedules, tutoring, and travel as illustrative factors for enforcement. The rules take effect July 21 unless Congress acts, with a House subcommittee reviewing compliance after vacation.
