The Conference's governance groups include the presidents, the athletic directors, the faculty athletic representatives and the senior women's administrators. Two of those groups do much of their work behind the scenes.

The coaches groups hold their spring meetings, usually at the conference offices. The football coaches and the basketball coaches met in early May to discuss issues in their sports and on their campuses.

Over the four days, the various governance groups meet on their own and then meet with the other groups.
 
With all the meetings and all the issues and all of the discussion, there's also some time for personal interaction. A number of staff members from the various schools spent an afternoon at a local Ronald McDonald House preparing meals and doing clean up work. 
A year ago at these meetings the Big 12's future was uncertain. This year, the conference is preparing for a new and promising future. The spring meetings provide a chance to prepare for the year ahead.
