Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Title IX requires that schools demonstrate proportionality OR program expansion OR accommodation of interests. This means that schools can choose to demonstrate compliance with Title IX in one of these ways. Proportionality involves ensuring that the gender demographics of the athletics program match the gender demographics of the student body. Program expansion involves adding sports for underrepresented genders. Accommodation of interests involves ensuring that the interests and abilities of all students, regardless of gender, are taken into account when creating sports programs. So, while option A is partially correct, it is not the only way to demonstrate compliance with Title IX. Option B is incorrect because Title IX is not just about spending but also about opportunities and resources for all genders. Option D is also incorrect because it does not take into account the need for proportionality or accommodation of interests.
