Title IX
“As a former student of Dr. Greg Waggoner, I know first-hand
of the dynamics of his presentations. I am an English Instructor
at Western State College and I request Dr. Waggoner’s Services
each semester for my literature course, Gender Roles Across Cultures.
The course focuses on the changing nature of female and male societal
interactions. Dr. Waggoner Presents a concise overview on the topic
of the Title IX and clarifies misunderstandings regarding genders
and athletics in relation to the benefits and consequences of the
law. His professional relationship to the topic and his prodigious
knowledge of sport-related issues is commanding. Dr. Waggoner is
an engaging speaker whose expertise in his field is always informative
for my classes.”

Contemporary
Issues and the Futures
(speech/seminar/consulting)
| Overview: |
This seminar is of value primarily to high
school and college athletic settings. The seminar provides
for an opportunity for RMAC to inform the participants of
the essence of this often misunderstood law.
Optional Components:
- Consulting services and conduction of a full Title IX
assessment of your institution if desired. This consulting
relationship would be much more exhaustive and would require
several weeks of information, communication and on-site
visits. The seminar outlined below will provide an administrator
the basic understanding, tools and resources necessary for
an institution to engage in a self-assessment process “in-house”.
|
| Speech:
|
This speech will cover the following primary
topics and is sure to stimulate active discourse among the
audiences participating:
- Brief background, history and definitions of Title IX
- Interpretations, Three Prong Test and the “laundry
list”
- Benefits and positive impact on society
- Unintended consequences
- Legal and political challenges and trends
This speech is typically approximately 30 minutes. However,
audience response, question, answers and provocative discourse
usually lasts an additional hour or more (1 ½ hours
total).
