In 1976, my wife, Jama, enrolled as a freshman at Indiana University of Pennsylvania to study criminology and accounting and she was also a member of the women’s track team. Unlike the men’s program, the women’s program did not offer scholarships, provide for preferential on-campus jobs, did not have their academic schedules modified so as to not interfere with practices, and had no paid coaches. The men’s coach volunteered his time and the women themselves funded the program.
