Campbellsville, KY - Campbellsville University president Dr. Michael V. Carter has assumed the role of chair of the Mid-South Conference Council of Presidents.

Carter is taking over the reins after Dr. Rita Morris, president of Shawnee State (Ohio), retired this past summer.



"Campbellsville is one of the original members of the Mid-South, and it is a real pleasure for me to serve as chair of the Board as we seek to make our conference the premier intercollegiate conference in the NAIA," said Carter.

Carter is beginning his 17th year serving as Campbellsville University's president. Before coming to Campbellsville, he was provost and vice president for academic affairs, as well as professor of sociology, at Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, TN, from 1985 until he became president of CU in 1999.

The Council of Presidents and athletics directors are seeking new potential full-time members to join the Mid-South but recently announced the addition of six institutions becoming affiliate members. Recently approved affiliates are Brewton-Parker (GA), Martin Methodist (TN), Southeastern (FL), St. Andrews (NC) and Tennessee Wesleyan for the upcoming 2015-16 season and Cincinnati Christian (Ohio) in 2016-17 as affiliate members. The announcement comes just two months after the addition of Truett-McConnell (GA) in wrestling and Lindenwood-Belleville (IL) in men and women's swimming and men and women's bowling as affiliate members.

With the new additions, the Mid-South Conference boasts 14 affiliate members to go along with its nine full members.
