Are the Men Still Winning?

According to the National Women's Law Center:

• Men's overall athletic opportunities at the NCAA level have actually increased. A 1995 NCAA study showed that in '93-'94, men's varsity intercollegiate athletic participation had its highest increase since 1987.
• Since Title IX was enacted, for every new dollar spent on women's sports, two new dollars have been spent on men's sports.
• Declines in some men's minor sports are a result of institutional budget priorities and shifts in interest, and not because of Title IX. Men's minor sports, such as gymnastics and wrestling, declined through the '80s, even when Title IX was not being enforced.
• If some men's minor sports are being unfairly shortchanged, the real culprit is the misallocation of resources within men's athletic programs that results in bloated budgets for some men's sports, while others are dropped.
