Abstract |
Morgan Burke is a native Hoosier and a Purdue graduate [BS 1973]. He talks about growing up in Indianapolis, Purdue campus life during his days as a student, his position with Inland Steel Company prior to his appointment at Purdue as Athletic Director. Burke talks about the Administrators vision of Purdue sports, internal forces such as Board of Trustees, University Community. He talks about his involvement with NCAA, Alumni, Media and the John Purdue Club. Quote:...and I think the thing I always remind my leadership is you know, lets not take our disappointments of the past and use those as seed to keep it foaming in the future. If we get something fixed and were doing the right thing, let it go. We cant undo what happened to each of us but we dont have to perpetuate that into the next generation. |
