Title IX
Yes, 34 years ago today Richard Nixon signed into law~

"No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex be excluded from
participation in, or denied the benefits of, or be subjected to
discrimination under any educational program or
activity receiving federal aid."
Big difference:
1994 women recieved 38% medical degrees compared to 1972 9%
1994 women recieved 43% of the law degrees compared to 1972 7%
And in athletics, all the difference in the world.

"How important it is for us to reconize and celebrate our
heroes...and she-roes!"
