Audio recording of conference call Q&A with incoming president Mark Roosevelt

This is the full recording of the Antioch College Alumni Association Chapters Committee conference call from Monday November 15th which featured Q&A with incoming Antioch College President Mark Roosevelt. This was live streamed to 24 people and over 60 people were on the call.

Special thanks to Karen Mulhauser for organizing this call and collecting questions for Mark. This is hopefully the first of many.

Note – Apologies for the noise at the very end, Skype apparently decided to ignore the fact that I had the built in microphone on my laptop muted and you can here me (Matt Baya) speaking in the background. Wont happen again.

If anyone can take the time to make a transcript of this call or has the ability to pipe this into ‘Dragon Naturally Speaking’ or some other speech to text utility  it would be great to have that done and we can post the transcript here.
