## Method

A school is listed when its public athletics website, a vendor partner page, a job posting or a staff title references Ticketmaster with at least medium confidence. Detection is automated and re-run as directories refresh: absence means not detected, not not used, and contracts change, so confirm with the department before relying on a single listing.

This page is published when at least 2 covered MVC schools use the vendor; smaller combinations are kept out of search indexes. The conference's own page is [MVC Athletics Staff Directory](https://gowhistle.io/directory/mvc); every Ticketmaster school nationally is on [Which colleges use Ticketmaster?](https://gowhistle.io/technology/ticketmaster).
