The NCAA’s Board of Governors voted Wednesday to add anti-discrimination laws to its list of criteria for vetting host cities for “events in all divisions — from the Men’s and Women’s Final Fours to educational events such as leadership development conferences,” according to a news release. The announcement, made at the board’s quarterly meeting in Indianapolis, is an apparent response, in part, to the so-called “bathroom bill” recently passed in North Carolina that restricts bathroom use to one’s biological gender, seen as explicitly discriminatory of the transgender community. “The board’s decision follows the recent actions of legislatures in several states, which have passed laws allowing residents to refuse to provide services to some people based on their sexual orientation or gender identity,” the NCAA statement reads.
