Women's Teams in NCAA's Division I See Gains in Participation and Budgets.

Naughton, Jim

Chronicle of Higher Education, v44 n30 pA42-A43 Apr 3 1998

The proportion of women in top collegiate sports programs, 38%, and women's share of athletics budgets increased slightly in 1996-1997. Men still received almost twice as much money as women for operating expenses, recruiting, and athletically related financial aid. Advocates for women's athletics find the gains too small. College football advocates feel their financial success has increased opportunities for women. (MSE)
