ATLANTA -
The Georgia
Board of Regents has deferred any action on a proposal from Kennesaw
State University to begin a football program and add a Title IX women's
sport to its athletic program.
Al Barba, director of athletic
communications at the school northwest of Atlanta, said Tuesday the
regents indicated that the proposal will be studied further.
School
officials were scheduled to meet with the regents at their meeting
Tuesday. Kennesaw State officials have said the board's decision would
culminate a six-year process involving studies, student voting and
fundraising focused on launching a NCAA Division I football program.
The
university competes in seven men's sports and nine women's sports in
the 10-member Atlantic Sun Conference. With more than 24,600 students
enrolled, Kennesaw State is Georgia's third-largest university.
