April 1 – Celebrate OWU Women’s Sports and Title IX

Join us April 1 for a special plaque dedication at Selby Stadium. We will honor Harriet Stewart during the 50th anniversary year of Title IX and acknowledge her vision and contributions as a leader and trailblazer in OWU women’s intercollegiate athletics. A role model from the 1950s to the 1980s, she was light years ahead of Title IX, opening doors and laying the groundwork for women to have opportunities to grow, lead, and flourish in women’s intercollegiate athletics and life, both then and into the future.
