</ul></header> <p><em>Athlete Ally shared our <a href="https://www.athleteally.org/athlete-ally-mosier-respond-ncaa-new-trans-policy/">organizational response</a> last week to the NCAA’s updated transgender participation policy. We remain deeply troubled about the rushed timeline of this new policy, and its impact on transgender and nonbinary NCAA athletes. We are grateful for the leadership of those in the academic community who join us in underscoring the dire need for all athletes to be safe, welcome and included in sport. Below, we’re sharing the open resignation letter from Dr. <span style="font-weight: 400;">Dorian Rhea Debussy, who up until now was serving as a facilitator of NCAA’s DIII LGBTQ OneTeam Program.</span></em></p> <hr /> <p style="text-align: center;"><b>An Open Resignation Letter in Protest of the NCAA’s </b><b>Updated Transgender Participation Policy</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since the creation of the program in spring 2019, I have served as a facilitator of the National Collegiate Athletics Association’s (NCAA’s) </span><a href="https://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/inclusion/division-iii-lgbtq-oneteam-program"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Division III LGBTQ OneTeam Program</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which is a national training program that fosters LGBTQ+ inclusion in NCAA Division III athletics. As a member of the inaugural training cohort and one of only 54 certified facilitators across the country, I have taken this role very seriously, particularly given the importance of LGBTQ+ inclusion in both athletic and educational settings. Complementing my experiences within the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Kenyon College, my time as a facilitator has been both rewarding and impactful. However, I—as one of the few transgender and/or non-binary facilitators </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">and</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> as the only trans-feminine facilitator—cannot remain quiet about recent developments at the NCAA.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Throughout my nearly three years as a facilitator for the NCAA’s Division III LGBTQ OneTeam Program, I have offered training sessions and individualized guidance to hundreds of coaches, athletics administrators, DEI professionals, fellow facilitators, and student-athletes across multiple colleges and states. During these past three years, there has also been a </span><a href="https://www.aclu.org/legislation-affecting-lgbtq-rights-across-country-2021?redirect=legislation-affecting-lgbt-rights-across-country"><span style="font-weight: 400;">historic rise in anti-trans legislation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and this is particularly true of </span><a href="https://freedomforallamericans.org/legislative-tracker/student-athletics/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">legislation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> aimed at restricting the participation of transgender, non-binary, and intersex student-athletes.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Over the past decade, the NCAA has taken an increasingly stronger stance in support of gender diverse student-athletes. In a </span><a href="http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/Misc_Committees_DB/CWA10/May/Supplement%20No.%2023.pdf"><span style="font-weight: 400;">2008 statement</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the NCAA noted that that gender diverse student-athletes were allowed to participate in affiliated athletic programs; however, they, at the time, deferred to state gender classifications and institutionally specific rules. Within two years, the NCAA adopted its </span><a href="https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/inclusion/lgbtq/INC_TransgenderStudentAthleteParticipationPolicy.pdf"><span style="font-weight: 400;">(now former) transgender participation policy</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and this policy—which certainly had room for growth in regards to more inclusive and equitable participation for trans-feminine and non-binary student athletes—governed collegiate sports for more than a decade. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the not-so-recent past, the NCAA has also taken a number of public stances in support of LGBTQ+ rights. For instance, the President of the NCAA </span><a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2015/03/31/ncaa-president-indiana-law-against-our-core-values.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">publicly condemned</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Indiana’s 2015 </span><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/03/31/fix-this-now-says-indy-star-saying-religious-freedom-law-has-done-enormous-harm/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">“religious freedom” legislation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which allowed for people to deny services to LGBTQ+ individuals under the guise of religious beliefs. In 2016, North Carolina passed HB2, which required gender diverse people to use the bathroom facilities that corresponded to their sex assigned at birth, and the NCAA’s response was both swift and clear. Publicly affirming their support for gender diverse student-athletes, coaches, and fans, they </span><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/ncaa-pulls-seven-championships-out-north-carolina-over-hb2-n647386"><span style="font-weight: 400;">pulled seven different championships</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> from the state. However, their steadfast opposition to anti-LGBTQ+—and especially anti-trans—legislation appears to have waned in recent years. For example, the NCAA, just last year, </span><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/06/03/ncaa-championships-transgender-athlete-bills/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">awarded championship tournaments</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to multiple states that had actually passed legislation, which limits the participation of gender diverse student-athletes. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As a facilitator of the NCAA’s Division III LGBTQ OneTeam Program, I have often engaged public efforts to show support for gender diverse student-athletes and to educate a wider audience about gender equity in athletics. During the wave of anti-trans legislation in spring 2021, I—along with two fellow co-facilitators, Seth Hayes of Denison University and Dr. Kyrstin Krist of Methodist University—collaboratively drafted an </span><a href="https://www.hrc.org/press-releases/ncaa-lgbtq-oneteam-facilitators-publish-open-letter-condemning-anti-transgender-legislation"><span style="font-weight: 400;">open letter of support</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for gender diverse student-athletes, which was then signed by nearly 40 other facilitators of the program. Similarly, I have also publicly spoken about this topic in a variety of venues, including an </span><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/d3-one-team-trans-athletes/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">open conversation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that was hosted by Athlete Ally and a recent </span><a href="https://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/equality-lounge-at-power-of-sport-summit-provides-platform-to-celebrate-themes-o"><span style="font-weight: 400;">panel discussion</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> at the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission’s Power of Sport Summit. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now, I must, once again, speak publicly in support of our gender-diverse student athletes. Earlier this week, the NCAA announced a </span><a href="https://www.ncaa.org/news/2022/1/19/media-center-board-of-governors-updates-transgender-participation-policy.aspx"><span style="font-weight: 400;">major change</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to their transgender participation policy. While the NCAA’s press release notes some similarities to the </span><a href="https://stillmed.olympics.com/media/Documents/News/2021/11/IOC-Framework-Fairness-Inclusion-Non-discrimination-2021.pdf"><span style="font-weight: 400;">International Olympic Committee’s (IOC’s) updated policy</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for the participation of transgender, non-binary, and intersex athletes, there are a number of key differences. Most notably, the NCAA notes that their updated policy still mandates rigid testing schedules for endocrine levels, while the IOC’s updated policy strongly emphasizes the importance of bodily autonomy and scientific evidence in ensuring fairness. Additionally, the NCAA also notes that their updated policy—instead of setting a clear expectation for inclusive and equitable participation—defers to relevant policies of the governing bodies for each individual sport, while also not setting a clear and direct expectation for a trans-inclusive environment. In contrast, the IOC’s updated policy clearly affirms the rights of athletes to participate safely and without prejudice, while also mandating that relevant policies for each sport must fall in line with the IOC’s framework and expectations for an evidence-based, non-discriminatory, and stakeholder-centered approach.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While advocacy organizations and transgender athletes have </span><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/athlete-ally-mosier-respond-ncaa-new-trans-policy/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">already begun to critique</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> the NCAA’s updated transgender participation policy, there are also a number of other emerging issues, which coincide with this. Most alarmingly, the NCAA released a </span><a href="https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/governance/ncaa/constitution/NCAAGov_DraftConstitution.pdf"><span style="font-weight: 400;">draft of their revised constitution</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in November 2021. As noted by </span><a href="https://www.hrc.org/press-releases/human-rights-campaign-athlete-ally-call-on-ncaa-to-include-non-discrimination-language-enforceable-protections-for-transgender-athletes-in-new-constitutio"><span style="font-weight: 400;">a number of advocacy organizations</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, this draft removed previously existing non-discrimination language. Earlier this week, </span><a href="https://www.hrc.org/press-releases/human-rights-campaign-athlete-ally-and-other-advocacy-groups-urge-ncaa-to-include-non-discrimination-language-in-new-constitution"><span style="font-weight: 400;">a similar coalition</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> continued to advocate for the inclusion of non-discrimination language in the NCAA’s constitution, which is expected to be approved at the January 2022 convention. In the midst of a </span><a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2022/01/20/2022-anti-trans-legislation/6571819001/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">continued national wave of anti-trans legislation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that is often aimed at gender diverse youth and young adults, I find the NCAA’s public response to this important issue as inadequate and troubling at best.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With that being said, I’m deeply troubled by what appears to be a devolving level of active, effective, committed, and equitable support for gender diverse student-athletes within the NCAA’s leadership. As a non-binary, trans-feminine person, I can no longer, in good conscience, maintain my affiliation with the NCAA. Effectively immediately, I publicly resign from my role as a facilitator for the NCAA’s Division III LGBTQ OneTeam Program. While I will no longer facilitate this program, I look forward to continuing to offer support, resources, and training to coaches, athletic administrators, sports teams, and institutions of higher education, who are invested in ensuring a safer, more inclusive, and more equitable environment for gender diverse student-athletes. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And of course, I hope that the NCAA will quickly, actively, competently, and then consistently engage gender diverse student-athletes, coaches, administrators, and fans, so that they can better understand the impact and consequences of their most recent actions on the lives of our transgender, non-binary, and intersex youth and young adults.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sincerely,<br /> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dorian Rhea Debussy, Ph.D.<br /> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">pronouns: they/them<br /> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Associate Director for the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion<br /> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visiting Assistant Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies<br /> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kenyon College</span></p> <p> </p> <footer class="post-footer"> <ul class="menu-social-sm"> <p>Share</p> <li><a href="" data-share="facebook" data-url="https://www.athleteally.org/ncaa-facilitator-resigns-in-protest-over-trans-policy/"><i class="icon-facebook"></i></a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=NCAA+Facilitator+Resigns+in+Protest+Over+Trans+Policy&url=https://www.athleteally.org/ncaa-facilitator-resigns-in-protest-over-trans-policy/&via=athleteally"><i class="icon-twitter"></i></a></li> <li><a href="mailto:?to=&body=NCAA Facilitator Resigns in Protest Over Trans Policy%0D%0Ahttps://www.athleteally.org/ncaa-facilitator-resigns-in-protest-over-trans-policy/,&subject=NCAA Facilitator Resigns in Protest Over Trans Policy"><i class="icon-mail"></i></a></li> </ul> </footer> </div> </section> <footer id="footer" class="footer"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <a href="https://www.athleteally.org" class="logo"> <img alt="Athlete Ally" src="https://www.athleteally.org/wp-content/themes/athleteally/assets/dist/img/logo.footer.png" srcset="https://www.athleteally.org/wp-content/themes/athleteally/assets/dist/img/logo.footer.png 1x, https://www.athleteally.org/wp-content/themes/athleteally/assets/dist/img/logo.footer@2x.png 2x" > </a> <a href="https://www.athleteally.org/contact" class="link-alt">Contact Us<i class="icon-right-open-big"></i></a> </div> <div class="row"> <p class="copyright">Copyright © 2024 Athlete Ally</p> <ul id="menu-footer" class="menu menu-footer" role="menubar" title="Main menu"><li id="menu-item-100570" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-100570"><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/jobs/">Jobs</a></li> <li id="menu-item-49" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-49"><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/privacy-policy/">Privacy Policy</a></li> <li id="menu-item-50" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-50"><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/community-standards/">Community Standards</a></li> <li id="menu-item-51" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-51"><a href="https://www.athleteally.org/terms-of-use/">Terms of Use</a></li> </ul> <ul class="menu-social"> <li><a class="menu-item-social -twitter" href="https://twitter.com/AthleteAlly" target="_blank"></a></li> <li><a class="menu-item-social -facebook" href="https://www.facebook.com/AthleteAlly" target="_blank"></a></li> <li><a class="menu-item-social -instagram" href="https://www.instagram.com/athleteally" target="_blank"></a></li> <li><a class="menu-item-social -linkedin" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/athlete-ally" target="_blank"></a></li> <li><a class="menu-item-social -youtube" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/athleteally" target="_blank"></a></li> </ul> <script type='text/javascript'> piAId = '1061452'; piCId = ''; piHostname = 'go.athleteally.org'; (function() { function async_load(){ var s = document.createElement('script'); s.type = 'text/javascript'; s.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
