at sports was with support from parents and friends.
“The opportunities are much greater today,” Kasari
said. “But there still needs to be larger opportunities for
women athletes.”
Becky Gates, wife of University President Robert
M. Gates, said hearing the panelists’ stories was uplift
ing. She said there were no women’s high school
sports and only a handful of women’s sports at the uni
versity she attended.
“I think it’s great,” Gates said of Title IX. “If you
have a skill, you should be able to develop it to the
full potential.”
Gates said she might have been more involved with
sports had she been provided with the opportunities
women receive today.
“For a while, I could usually outdo my brother at
most things,” she said. “But then he turned 13, and that
was all over.”
Women’s Week continues at I 1:30 a.m. Wednesday
in MSC 225. Susan Golden is scheduled to speak on
women's careers in biology.
Also in conjunction with Parents’
Weekend is the All University Awards cer
emony, which takes place April 18.
“We will be awarding the Gathright
Award, the Margaret Rudder Service Award
and, of course, the Parents of the Year
award,” Birdwell said.
Last year, Tim and Janice Kerlee won
the honor of Parents of the Year. The
Kerlees’ son Tim was a victim of the 1999
Aggie Bonfire collapse, and they have
dedicated their time to help heal the
wounds the tragedy caused.
“It has really been a blessing to serve
as Pafents of the Year,” said Janice
Kerlee. “We had the most fun delivering
senior rings.”
Janice Kerlee said she wants people to
know that she and her husband are still
ministering to the needs of the students,
and they will continue to do so.
