Exhibit: Womenߴs Athletics at Ӱ

 Fifty years have passed since women at Ӱ entered intercollegiate athletics. Women have played sports at Ӱ for nearly as long as they have been admitted to the university—that is, for more than a century. But the enactment of the federal Title IX statute in 1972 finally opened the doors to the competitive play that Ӱ's male athletes had long engaged in and enjoyed.

A Raynor Library exhibit now celebrates the history surrounding this achievement as well as the stories of luminary female athletes who have made their mark on Ӱ along the way. The exhibit draws on photographs, newspapers, yearbooks, and other unique historical materials found only in the library's University Archives.

> VISIT THE EXHIBIT: “Fair Play: Womenʼs Athletics at Ӱ” is on display on Raynor Libraryʼs 3rd Floor. \
