Who's Managing the Game? Inside the NCAA Division III President's Council
About this episode
The episode explores the governance of NCAA Division III and the role of college presidents in athletics programs.
Many college presidents have never set foot at an NCAA convention — yet they're ultimately responsible for everything that happens in their athletics programs. So who's actually steering Division III? Karen Weaver goes behind the curtain with Dr. Marc Camille, chair of the NCAA Division III President's Council, to expose the governance gap that nobody's talking about. With over 400 institutions in Division III and presidential engagement at a startling low, Marc is on a mission to change how — and whether — campus leaders show up for the decisions that shape student-athlete experiences nationwide. From reforming how at-large bids are awarded to rallying presidents who don't even realize they should be in the room, this is a rare look at the people setting the rules of college sports from the inside.
