Contrary to rumors on campus and within the local press, Cynthia Pemberton didn’t set out in 1992 to destroy the long-honored football team of Linfield College, a small liberal arts school in Oregon. As a substitute, the Assistant Athletic Director for Women’s Sports sought after to make athletic opportunities equally to be had to both men and women – simply to make the school agree to the law. Her six-year crusade for full implementation of Title IX made headlines around the nation. Here is Pemberton’s autobiographical account of what would turn into the ordeal of her life.
