Tyler Silvestri presents selections from the Board of Trustees meeting where President-Designate Samuel L. Stanley, Jr. was appointed, along with fact-checks, context, and commentary about how the public and Stanley's nascent presidency have been harmed by the closed search process. After that, Rebecca Liebson, the former news editor of Stony Brook University's The Statesman, calls in to explain the transparency problem she believes Stanley had during the four years she covered him.

ASMSU Vice President for Governmental Affairs Eli Pales and Tyler Silvestri moderate a forum between the four major-party candidates for the MSU Board of Trustees. Dave Dutch (R), Mike Miller (R), Brianna Scott (D), and Kelly Tebay (D) discuss tuition, freedom of speech, Interim President Engler, firearms on campus, and more at this October 2 event.

Kelly Tebay, one of the four major-party candidates for the MSU Board of Trustees, sits down for a wide-ranging and personal interview. Among other things, the Democratic candidate discussed college readiness, whether Barack Obama should be the next President of MSU, and what she learned from her own sexual assault as a freshman on campus.

Four candidates are vying for two spots on the MSU Board of Trustees. Republican Mike Miller sits down for a conversation about Title IX, transparency, and the next President of Michigan State University.

On July 24, Interim President John Engler testified before the United States Senate’s Commerce, Science, and Transportation Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, Insurance, and Data Security. Here's an edited version that gets rid of the fluff and focuses on Engler's responses to Senators' fiery questions about Kaylee Lorincz, MSU's missteps, and whether he should keep his job.

Interim President John Engler sat down for an interview about how the University has improved since he arrived, as well as how some of his comments have inhibited the mission of moving forward.

That experience informs a wide-ranging conversation about leadership, former President Simon, Interim President Engler, and the Board of Trustees.

On Tuesday, June 5, former MSU President Lou Anna Simon testified alongside Rhonda Faehn (the former Women’s Program Director of USA Gymnastics) and ex-USAG President Steve Penny at a hearing of the United States Senate’s Commerce, Science, and Transportation Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, Insurance, and Data Security.  Here's an edited version of the nearly three-hour hearing featuring only Simon's testimony.

The University settles with the Nassar survivors, the Board of Trustees erupts in drama, a Trustee is acquitted of assault and battery, and even more administration figures resign. And none of those are even the main topic of this episode. Since Lou Anna Simon resigned, a coalition of staff, faculty, and students calling themselves "Reclaim MSU" has vocally opposed the Engler Administration, the Board of Trustees, and moves that they perceive as being against the interests of Spartans. Tyler Silvestri sits down with the organization's Communications Coordinator for a discussion about campus climate, their policy proposal, and Trustee Mosallam's "New Day MSU" initiative.

Tyler Silvestri sits down with Director Haley Gold and Assistant Director Sarah Ghazal of ASMSU's Student Rights Advocates to discuss specific reforms to MSU's Title IX procedures and policy.
