The news cycle is constantly changing and many of us struggle to keep up with its fast-paced rhythm. On “The Outside In”, we talk about the important news stories that dominate headlines for weeks and months at a time. Then, we relate these stories back to our campus here at Wake Forest and break down the issues with experts from our community.

In this episode, Sophie Yass (‘22) and Stephanie Lu (‘25) explore the mark that the pandemic has left on the mental health of students and how it has exacerbated pre-existing issues like health disparities and funding constraints. The hosts talk to Warrenetta C. Mann, Psy.D. and Denisha Champion, Ph.D. from the University Counseling Center about their personal experiences during the pandemic, its impact on the UCC, and their interactions with students at Wake Forest.

In episode eight our hosts first begin by discussing the panel that was recently held on the importance and implications of renaming buildings.

Next, Cooper and Evan sit down with Dr. Sean Hannah, who served in the army for 26 years and is now a professor of management and holder of the Tylee Wilson Chair at the Wake Forest School of Business.
