The world has changed. How are we changing with it? Here at Quinnipiac University, we are trying to figure that out. Hosted by Judy Olian, president of the university, The Way Forward is a podcast of thoughtful conversations with the trailblazers who are seeking solutions to all of today's challenges. Every Thursday, The Way Forward will bring you a different conversation. One week you might hear Judy talk with Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont about how the state’s handling the pandemic, and the next week you might hear one of the university's deans interviewing an editor of the Wall Street Journal. The path ahead is probably going to be tough for most of us. But solutions are out there, so let’s talk about them, and find our way forward. The Way Forward is a production of the Quinnipiac University Podcast Studio, and produced by Bryan Murphy, a graduate student, with production assistance by Karla Natale, associate vice president of university events and community partnerships.
