SHEPARD)S
SUBJECT:
Civil Rights
HEW has completed preparation of draft regulations for Title IX (Outlawing Sex
Discrimination in Higher Education) of the Education Act Amendments of 1972,
and had intended to publish them next week in the Federal Register for comment.
These are said to be the most controversial regulations HEW has issued in the last
ten years. Among other things, they would eliminate (1) all scholarships based on
sex. This would virtually end athletics scholarships and force the reopening of
thousands of private bequests of all kinds (e.g. "for a young man from Peoria",
"for five men from Exeter majoring in chemistry", etc.). (2) Any sex discrimina-
tion in the use of facilities, athletic or otherwise. (3) Any curriculum or course of
study using materials showing sex discrimination.
I have held up the intended publication of these regulations, and have asked for a
full description from HEW of the contr versial items.
