COMMENTS: Attached is a copy of HR 1987 with (handwritten) annotations by the Dept. of Education. ED proposes to convey informally a message to the bill's supporters that it would support the bill with those amendments. The bill would require the Secretary of ED to assist in the dissemination of information currently required by the HEA on athletic participation by students. It would require the Secretary to issue his own report on data disclosed by individual institutions and publicize its availability. ED's proposed amendments are designed to reduce the burden on ED and micro-management. DISTRIBUTION LIST AGENCIES: EOP: Barry White Kathryn B. Stack Patricia A. Smith Robert M.
