WCSUPodcasts

Have you ever dreamed about traveling abroad, but haven't been able to "justify" the expense? There is a way - through travel opportunities offered right here at WCSU. Different departments offer travel courses where you can learn in a location and a language that brings your studies to life. Hear more about it!

WCSU alumnus Dirk Perrefort discusses his new job at Sandy Hook Promise, and Pete talks beer with Music Professor Doug O’Grady.

Provost Dr. Missy Alexander and Dr. Rayda Krell sound off. Chantel chose not to join us but Paul and Pete found a few events to promote.

Have you thought about your life in terms of creating a design for it? We'll speak today with the director of the Career Success Center, Kathleen Lindenmayer, about the new Designing Your Life program they now offer. It helps you to not just think your way forward, but to build your way forward.

Paul tries to get Computer Science Professor Dr. William Joel to predict the future, Dr. Rayda Krell explains insects to Girl Scouts, Library Director Veronica Kenausis reveals all of the library’s research possibilities, and co-host Chantel Williams explains what we’re going to do about hate speech.

Registration time is fast approaching, and if you've never done it at WCSU before, it can be a bit of a process to understand it all the first time through - especially the part about meeting with your advisor. In this episode, we'll speak with Ms. Isabel Carvalho, the director of the Academic Advisement Center, about why that advisor appointment is so important, and how you should prepare for registration.
