New fields at Gavilan College
Gavilan College, a community college in California with 6,100 athletes, recently settled its Title IX complaint by agreeing to remedy the inequitable facilities at the college. The complaint, brought in 2005 by an unnamed party, was under investigation for 2 years by OCR. The result: new scoreboard for the softball field, a new fence, and eventually a new location farther away from the women's soccer field which itself is being reseeded, better maintained, and has a new irrigation system.
