Karol Anne Kahrs
Tune in today at 1 p.m. on 1240 WSQL for the “I Love Brevard” radio show where our “Brevardian of the Week” is Karol Anne Kahrs!
Karol played a pivotal role in the history and implementation of Title IX in the United States in the early 70’s. Check out this fantastic short documentary film that showcases her role as the first female Associate Athletic Director at the University of Illinois, who created and developed the first Women’s Intercollegiate Athletics program there (this film is up for a Mid-America Emmy!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vx0714i-fDg.
