Trustees and Presidents: A Podcast for University Leaders On College Athletics

The MAC's Mission: Elevating Ethics and Sustainability in College Athletics

I'm joined on the podcast by President Geoffrey S. Mearns, the 17th president of Ball State University. Since 2017, he’s led initiatives like *Destination 2040: Our Flight Path*, driving record-breaking enrollment, alumni engagement, and fundraising, while shaping the University’s long-term vision. 

 Joining him is Dr. Jon A. Steinbrecher, Commissioner of the Mid-American Conference (MAC) since 2009. With a historic career spanning leadership in all three NCAA Division I Subdivisions, he’s elevated collegiate athletics and championed the student-athlete experience. 

The MAC delived a call to action to their colleagues in the NCAA to address the rising levels of post-game altercations (such as the Michigan-Ohio State "flag-planting" incident post-game and fans throwing water bottles at players).
