	A Fight to the Death: NCAA vs. AIAW
		Eventually the AIAW put all of their money into a lawsuit against the NCAA, but they were unsuccessful, resulting in a merger between then AIAW and the NCAA.
		The AIAW felt that maintaining that each athlete was a student first and foremost was their main concern, and this disappointed many young women who hoped to obtain a sport scholarship to go to college.
		Though the AIAW had accomplished much change on it's own, I feel that it was the pressure that the NCAA put on that really got men's and women's athletics on the same page.

	Sub-Mergent Power: Struggles for Equality under the AIAW/NCAA Merger
		This is the case as illustrated by the merger of the AIAW and the NCAA.
		By 1981, the AIAW was no longer, and the majority of the leadership roles held by women, including a large percentage of coaching positions, were replaced by men as the NCAA absorbed the AIAW.
		Though the merge of the AIAW and the NCAA brought immediate loss of women's positions of power and may have disrupted the original vision the AIAW had for women's athletics, there is yet another side to consider.

	The Harvard Crimson :: Sports :: Courts to Rule on AIAW-NCAA Controversy
		Marilee Dean Baker, president-elect of the AIAW and director of athletics at Princeton, told The Crimson yesterday that if Federal District Court in Washington, D.C., rules in favour of the NCAA, AIAW officials will be forced to dissolve their organization because of its inability to compete financially with the NCAA.

		Pollivy said she expects Richey to grant the injunction because "Quite clearly, the AIAW needs relief [from the damages incurred as a result of the NCAA decision] before April." She added that Richey has set an "extremely fast schedule" for the case, and officials from both organizations said they expect Richey to expedite matters.

		For example, students playing in AIAW were allowed to transfer freely between schools and programs were initially forbidden to offer scholarships and recruit off-campus to prevent unfair advantages.

		Dean Baker, who three years later accepted a position on the NCAA executive committee, says she and others had to be pragmatists and accept the transition because of their essential concern about the growth and development of women’s athletics, whatever organization was administering it.

		The AIAW wanted equal funding and recognition, but it wanted to conduct its programs with its own core values, avoiding the "commercialization" they saw in the NCAA model.
		To NCAA officials, the AIAW's model was one of playing sports and having post-game teas, while the men were the ‘real athletes.'

		The AIAW sued to prevent the NCAA from implementing the new championships, claiming the NCAA didn't have the women's best interests at heart.
