In the January/February 2024 issue of Athletic Business Magazine, writer Michael Popke catches up with two NIRSA volunteer leaders to talk about how NIRSA is jumping into 2024 with a series of year-long celebrations that will include social media highlights about the association’s history.

Lexi Chaput, Senior Assistant Director of Sports Programs and Development for Recreational Sports at the University of Michigan and member of NIRSA’s History and Legacy Committee and Mark Williams, Director of RecSports at the University of Notre Dame and Co-chair of the History and Legacy Committee connect with AB Magazine to offer some perspective about NIRSA’s impact over the past seven and a half decades.

Who are the Top 10 humans of your NIRSA history?

The History and Legacy Committee is hoping to amplify diverse perspectives as they work to honor the individuals and milestones that have made a positive impact on your NIRSA experiences.

Take a few minutes this week to list up to 10 individuals, from your perspective, who have had the most significant impact on NIRSA, on the profession of campus recreation, and on your NIRSA experience. Don’t worry about listing them in any particular order.
