Finding Your Place: Getting Involved Outside the Classroom (Episode 9)

Welcome to the Finding Your Place podcast - a series about the college experience made by college students for college students. In our ninth episode, we explore the important learning experiences that happen when we leave the college classroom and get involved with student life. Producer Emily Albright reflects on her first shaky steps into on-campus clubs, and then later playfully crashes a celebration for a student-run newspaper, getting the staff members' thoughts on what getting involved on campus means to their college education. Music composed and performed by Marcus Bagala from his 2018 album, Materials. Used with permission. Please support his work at www.marcusbagala.com. The Finding Your Place Podcast Series has been created with the support of Minnesota State "Shark Tank" grant funding for innovation in higher education.
