don mcpherson is an all-american quarterback at syracuse. don: was. haley: was, a runner-up for the heisman trophy. more importantly for our purposes, a decades-long activist on this issue who has spent a long time talking about to college students specifically about these questions. i am really curious about the way in which colleges have been a place -- of course, they get most of their attention for being breeding grounds for toxic masculinity, but other ways in which colleges have actually been a place for transformation. don: i think that the last thing you said is significant. colleges are a place for transformation. not around this issue, but everything that goes back to the algebra analogy. colleges are a place of transformation when you talk about any kind of academic discipline or any kind of excellence in pursuit of any endeavor. except this. and that's where the shift has to change on college campuses. i think there's something that's really important, and i can go back to what michael said and the previous panel. we had dinner last night
