Abstract	This brief history of Title IX points out that the role of women and girls in education and the work force began to change significantly with the passage of Title IX as part of the Education Amendments to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Title IX ensures legal protection against discrimination for students and employees. This article discusses the origins of Title IX, describes its specific regulations, examines adjunct equal rights legislation, and highlights progress to date. It also discusses: the need for improvement to promote educational equity; equal access and equal treatment versus equitable outcomes; emerging issues related to gender inequity; and future expectations. The Digest also includes: a listing of Women's Educational Equity Act (WEEA) materials to support Title IX mandates; a list of resource organizations for Title IX, including addresses and telephone numbers; and a description of WEEA's new web site.
