Across the Pac-12: Teams and universities celebrate 50th anniversary of Title IX
On June 23, 2022, Pac-12 universities, teams and programs took to social media to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the landmark legislation, Title IX, being enacted. The Pac-12 launched its celebration of Title IX's 50th anniversary with "powHER of the Pac" immediately following Stanford women's golf capturing the 2022 NCAA team title, the 200th team NCAA title ever for Pac-12 women's teams.
Also in celebration of 50 years of Title IX, the ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12 alliance launched a joint campaign with "togetHER" with a year's worth of celebration plans.
On the morning of June 23, Pac-12 Commissioner George Kliavkoff also shared an open letter that was sent to all Pac-12 student-athletes regarding Title IX.
