Our Call to Beneficence

S4E10: A Retired Administrator Reflects Back on His Years of Service to Ball State | (Don Mikesell, Graduate and Dean of Students Emeritus)


Listen Later

Don Mikesell served as Ball State's dean of students from 1985 to 2001. Before he was an administrator at our university, Don was both an undergraduate and graduate student on our campus. 

In this episode, Don reminisces about what Ball State was like when he first enrolled in 1956. From Greek life to helping adopt a more relaxed student dress code (believe it or not, khakis were controversial at the time!), Don was an involved and engaged Cardinal. Don also reflects on the mentors who shaped his professional career—a career defined by his outstanding service to our University.
