NCAA: Use "Men's" in the Final Four logo, just like you use "Women's"


NCAA: Use "Men's" in the Final Four logo, just like you use "Women's"
The Issue
49 years after Title IX passed, the NCAA is still referring to men's basketball as just "basketball," while women's basketball is always "women's basketball." How can women’s basketball ever be equal if they continue to only use a qualifier for women? We should use the same rules of language for men’s and women’s sports. Men are not the default.
NCAA, please use the word “men’s” in next year's Men's Final Four logo. Both the NCAA and broadcasters like CBS should use the word "men's" in logos and other printed language for men's basketball. It's time we stop implying women's sports are lesser.
