2017-18 NCAA Member Institutions: Title IX Athletics Participation Compliance with Prong One Proportionality Test. Sports Management Resources
Eight years following the adoption of Title IX, most institutions are expected to comply under Title IX’s Prong One participation requirement: male and female athletic participation equal to the percent of males and females in the institution’s undergraduate student body. Female athletes are underrepresented at eighty-three percent of 1210 NCAA members despite a generous buffer of 20 female participation opportunities below exact proportional opportunities.
