Curiosity

Aaron Backlund interviews Riley Galer, a second year Communication and Media major. Topics range from making connections in college to getting involved with Mav FM. Aaron is about to graduate from the program, and Riley is just getting started. This makes for a fun and educational conversation. 

This week we go back in time to the Finding Your Place Podcast, a podcast produced in 2019 by students from Minnesota State University and Century College in the Twin Cities. Current Curiosity host Ben introduces the episode and shares some of his own thoughts on gen eds. It's really worth a listen--and many thanks to those students who created the Finding Your Place Podcast, all of whom have moved on to life after college. 

Riley and Lizzie sit down with Public Relations Major Meredith Robb. Meredith is about to graduate and reflects back on what she has learned doing public relations work for the CSU here on campus. It's a fun and meaningful episode but of special value to those interested in someday getting a position on campus.
