For this second special summer episode of the podcast, it was joy to welcome back to campus Isaac Watkins and Peter Watkins from the Class of 2021. It was another wonderful conversation about their thoughts on STMA before attending, during their time at the Academy, and upon graduating and heading to their respective undergraduate schools, North Carolina State University/College of Design and Boston College. Isaac will be returning in the fall to teach a computer 3D modeling/rendering elective, and Peter will be joining us (and his sister, Adriana) as a full time faculty member.
