In this episode, we dare to ask a question that many of you are wondering about: why do you have to take all of these general education courses? Our producer team chats about the good and bad of their gen ed experiences, and then Producer Monte Brown reflects on a general education course that ended up having a huge impact on the way he saw himself as an African-American man and a scholar.
