Strangers By Nature Podcast Amelia Clarke & Talya Rajagukguk

So long, farewell to our dear viewers and listeners. It has been an honour and pleasure for us to host 6 episodes and 8 minis of Strangers By Nature. In this last episode, we recap our fav memories, highlights and share our biggest learning moments and struggles. Setting up this podcast wasn’t the easiest thing for us and we weren’t always excited but we are proud of what we created, the relationships we formed and the questions we got to ask. We are hopeful that our passion for inclusion and excellent work within and beyond the Warwick student body will be continued and improved upon by two new hosts who are crafting a brand new podcast. Please support them the way you supported us. More info to come!

Traditionally, art spaces at the University of Warwick have been predominantly white. Recently there has been an upsurge of creative spaces on campus led by students of the global majority.

When you ask how someone made it, they likely mention networking. But why and how? We show you the easiest ways to network for all the shy and exhausted performers out there. Don't fret, we got you covered.
