From the Centre Daily Times:

ROSEMONT, ILL. — In a room on the ground floor of its sparkling new headquarters, the Big Ten Conference is putting the final touches on its version of Cooperstown.

It’s not quite a Hall of Fame. The Big Ten Experience is a shrine to the conference’s athletic and academic achievements. Fans will be able to relive some of their favorite moments through a series of interactive exhibits when the museum opens in the spring or summer.

[...]

The museum is about the success of the athletes and teams along with their accomplishments away from the field. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Big Ten Medal of Honor given to one male and female from each school based on their accomplishments on the field and in the classroom. All are recognized here.

(Insert SEC troll saying, "THIS IS WHERE B1G FOOTBALL BELONGS... IN A MUSEUM.")
