Title IX Compliance

The Bossier Parish Community College Athletic program provides equal athletic opportunity to all students and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, age, religion, qualified disability, marital status, veteran’s status, or sexual orientation in admission to its programs, services, or activities, in access to them, in treatment of individuals, or in any aspect of their operations.

At present, the Athletic program provides the following sports opportunities: men’s basketball, women’s intramural basketball, men’s baseball, and women’s softball. The cheerleading team is composed of male and female participants. Any inequalities in other teams at the College are because of lack of interest in participating in the individual sports as evidenced by student surveys.
