USA Today sports columnist Christine Brennan was among the speakers at Bowling Green State University Feb. 2-6 for “Women
and Sport: Before, During, and After Title IX,” an interdisciplinary symposium celebrating women in athletics.
In addition to Brennan, a Toledo native whose address opened the symposium, keynote speakers included Bernice Sandler and
Mariah Burton Nelson. Sandler played a major role in the development and passage of Title IX and other legislation prohibiting
discrimination against females in education. Nelson, a former college and professional basketball player, is a writer who
has authored books on how women are changing sport.
