Tune in for the twice-monthly podcast version of FYI Salem! Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll interviews city officials, community leaders, notable residents, and more, and provides a brief update on the latest news and information from the City of Salem, from inside City Hall and across the community.

In this episode, Mayor Driscoll chats with President Patricia Meservey of Salem State University, who announced this month that she will be retiring at the end of this academic year. Mayor Driscoll and President Meservey reflect on the president's ten years of leadership at SSU, current projects and initiatives underway, and what the future may hold for the university.
