Sandy Barbour, other Penn State powerhouses host panel on equality in sports

Six powerhouse women in the Penn State sports world took to the stage at the Gender Equity in Sports: Reality of Dream? to discuss women’s equality in the Freeman Auditorium Tuesday night.

The event was hosted by the Gender Equity Center and co-sponsored by the All Sports Museum in honor of women’s history month. The panel was made up of professors, members of the administration and coaches to give a diverse array of personal experiences, according to Jennifer Pencek.

“In terms of reaching out to panelists, I tried to think of who can bring different types of perspective,” Pencek, the programming coordinator for the Gender Equity Center, said.
