 For budgetary reasons, JMU announced on September 29, 2006 that it would reduce its large number of sports teams. Due to operation of the [[proportionality test]] under [[Title IX]], JMU eliminated men's archery, cross country, gymnastics, indoor track, outdoor track, swimming, and wrestling, as well as [[Title IX|women]]'s archery, fencing, and gymnastics. JMU stated that its motivation for cutting far more male teams than female teams was to make the ratio of female-to-male student athletes 61% to 39%, just as the overall student population is. "After the cuts, 61% of its athletes will be women, 39% men. That's called proportionality, one of three ways schools can comply with Title IX's participation requirements."<ref>''Id.''</ref>
