This oral history interview was conducted as part of the Tell Your MSU Story Oral History Project conducted by the Southern Minnesota Historical Center at Minnesota State University, Mankato.
Georgene Brock was born June 15, 1937 in Phoenix, Arizona. She attended Arizona State University for her bachelor’s degree in physical education and taught junior high and high school before pursuing her master’s degree at the University of New Mexico. Brock came to Mankato State College as a faculty member running women’s intramurals and teaching physical education classes. She taught gym sports, method classes, bowling, and archery besides coaching. As the women’s athletic director her duties included budgeting, scheduling, and obtaining uniforms for teams.
Brock and other physical education faculty were instrumental in starting women’s athletics at Mankato State and did so on an unpaid voluntary basis. Because women’s athletics was just starting there was no budget, meaning no uniforms, food, or facilities. However, Mankato State had one of the best physical education programs in the state and the students initially involved were physical education majors with great enthusiasm and skill. Gradually, women’s athletics received more money and the sports became more organized in the state and nationally.
Brock retired in 1998 after 34 years at Mankato State University. Her position as women’s athletic director was eliminated after her retirement.
