Title IX has had a personal impact on women and men over the last 36 years. Last year the NCAA undertook a year-long conversation to understand the intimate impact this law has made on the lives of individuals.

Participants were asked one question, “What does Title IX mean to you?”  The answers ranged from tearful accounts to inspirational stories of leadership and sacrifice.

Administrators, activists, coaches, student-athletes and Olympians were all interviewed, giving a well-rounded impression of this important legislation.

Watch some of the interviews below and be sure to subscribe to the NCAA YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/ncaa) to be notified when other videos are added.  Christine Grant and Dona Lopiano are just two of those that will be featured soon.
