Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a law that outlawed sex-based discrimination in education, but sex-based inequalities in college athletics remain the reality. Equality Unfulfilled identifies institutional roadblocks that undermine efforts to achieve systemic change and offers novel lessons for those seeking to understand the barriers that marginalized groups face in their quest for equality.

The year 1972 is widely celebrated as a pivotal moment in the advancement of women's rights. Congress enacted Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, a groundbreaking law that prohibited sex-based discrimination in education. While many Americans applaud Title IX for its role in opening up opportunities for women's athletics, it is disheartening to note that fifty years after its passage, sex-based inequalities in college athletics persist. Equality Unfulfilled delves into the underlying reasons behind this discrepancy. The book identifies institutional barriers such as sex-based segregation, androcentric organizational cultures, and overwhelming market incentives that hinder efforts to achieve systemic change. Through comprehensive surveys conducted with student-athletes, athletic administrators, college coaches, members of the public, and college sports fans, the book sheds light on how institutions shape attitudes toward gender equity policy. It offers valuable insights not only for those passionate about college sports but for anyone seeking to understand the challenges faced by marginalized groups in their pursuit of equality.
