Athletic Directors

This article talks about athletic directors. It starts out saying in the 80's mens and women's programs were finally intertwined, but that athletic directors were only male. Today women make up 20% of the population of athletic directors, that means 80% are male. This is a sad percentage. I mean i defiantly don't think women should take over the population but i think it should be close to an even 50-50%. It would give more power to woman in athletics. Being the head of intercollegiate sports is a big role to take on, but why's it labeled as a male job? I think women are just as qualified. It goes back to the issue, can women take care of their families and handle a powerful job. what do you guys think about this? Yeah this isn't very common but women can do it!
