One of the primary things that the IU Sport Management, Marketing, and Communication programs emphasize is exposing our students to prominent, interesting, or unique guest speakers from the sport industry. We have had speakers from a variety of sports, geographical locations, and backgrounds talk to our students, both in classroom settings and in public symposia.
The following represents a partial and ever-growing list of individuals who have spoken in an official capacity to our students.
