Join the Discussion

Rec Talk is an ongoing conversation series that brings campus recreation professionals together to explore the content shaping their thinking and leadership. From podcasts and articles to books, media, and beyond, each session highlights what NIRSA leaders are reading, watching, and listening to and how those insights connect back to their work in meaningful and sometimes unexpected ways.

Join the conversation to discover new resources, broaden your perspective, and gain fresh ideas that can influence your approach to campus recreation and leadership.
