Title IX Coming Under Scrutiny by Administration By BETTY ANNE WILLIAMS Associated Pmt Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Feminists dismayed by an administration decision to take another look at a rule barring sex discrimination in school sports are accusing President Reagan of reneging on a campaign promise to uphold women's rights a major attack on women and women's education programs" complained Janet Wells of the Nation Coalition for Women and Girls in Education the campaign President Reagan assured us all that he is for equal rights for women just without the Equal Rights said Hollie Knox director of the Project on Equal Education Rights promised to enforce the statutes against sex discrimination Now here is the adminstration talking about eliminating some of the basic rights that women have: equal education rights and the right to equal employment treatment at education The quick outcry was in response to Vice President George announcement Wednesday that Title IX of a 1972 antidiscrimination act will be reviewed with an eye toward changing what he called its vague requirements Bush said colleges and universities have found complying with Title IX to be administratively burdensome He also contended that the schools were unhappy at being required to provide equal pay for male and female coaches and equal supplies equipment and publicity between male and female teams However supporters of Title IX said the vice president was misinformed on both points Title IX requires schools receiving federal aid to evaluate themselves and make sure their programs discriminate said Margaret Kohn of the Regulations for implementing it had to be drafted and then there was a delay in enforcing them until a final policy interpretation was announced late in 1979 Even before announcement the Education Department under the new Reagan administration had signaled it does not concur with the old interpretations For one thing the department appears to be leading toward an interpretation that would limit the scope of Title IX to schools whose athletic programs receive federal funds instead of any school which receives any federal funds For snother Education Secretary TH Bell has asked the Justice Department to switch sides 'in a pending Supreme Court case and argue for the first time that the provision applies to students only not to employees of an institution receiving federal funds National Women's Law Center Extra paperwork is required only when a school is found not to be complying with the law she said And the rule does not require equal pay for male and female coaches unless they are doing comparable work and have the same qualifications and levels of experience she said The regulations require schools to provide the same quality of equipment for sports in which both women and men participate and to treat athletes of both sexes in the same way For example if male athletes are given single rooms on out-of-town 'trips female athletes should have the same privilege One reason the women's groups are upset is that Title IX oily now is beginning to be enforced although it has been on the books almost a decade Sports The Centre Daily Times
