Title IX Response • In Spring 2016, we surveyed all Female Students at the college via online
survey (764 Respondents)• 2016-17 Year – 84 out of 293 are Female Athletes (28.66%) – the rate should be
reflective of our overall college female to make ratio (50.40 Female:49.60 Male)• The decision was to add, over time, to our sport offerings:
• Winter 2016 – Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving• 14 Athletes (7 Men and 7 Women, 4 athletes from Out of County)
• Fall 2018 Men’s and Women’s Cross Country• Fall 2019 Hockey or Tennis
• Athlete Participation by Sport and Residence listed here.• Action Plan 2.1.1 - Add at least one women’s sport within the next 3 years (i.e.
swimming, track & field, hockey, tennis, etc.). Evaluate and expand additional opportunities within a similar time frame for female athletes.

Consequences of Negative ActionAs it stands there is not enough funding through the allocation to keep 15 sports. We would have to eliminate at least 2 sports. The sports most likely would be Baseball and Hockey.• Baseball has a 30 member roster and 11 others who did not make the team but
ended up enrolling at ECC. Total 2016-17 annual cost is $76,839.52• Hockey has a 30 member roster with 21 others who did not make the team but
ended up enrolling at ECC. Total 2016-17 annual cost is $94,144.52 (There are enough players to create a Junior Varsity Team)
Total Potential Impact – 91 Full Time student loss = $906,028 in tuition, fees chargebacks and double tuition. Net Loss = $735,043.86

Key Points – Option 4.1• The increase would be incremental – currently at 12 credits the fee ($70)
equates to $5.83. This proposal is for $6 per credit.
• Students will pay the same amount (over time) whether they register for 12 credits or 15 credits:

Key Points # 4.1
• Might have to revisit the current allocations and increase to ensure proper funding for this year
• No increase in wellness to be added to the budget (Perhaps we could explore for next year?)
• Athletics allocation would be reviewed by allocations committee – every 3 years – this would allow proper planning and notification.
