    Math Class

    In this episode of Real College Podcast, we tackle a sensitive subject: math. But don’t worry — this isn’t a lesson in algebra or trigonometry. Instead, we explore why so many people grow up hating math, and how math connects to arts, culture, music and media, in ways that often go unnoticed. Through conversations with educators, researchers, and professors, our reporters examine how data shapes the world around us — and why it doesn’t have to feel so intimidating. First, Alexandra Denisova explores where students’ hatred of math begins, and why so many people struggle to see its meaning beyond the classroom. Next, Karolyn Deiss speaks with a professor fascinated by the Nobel Peace Prize. Then, Hayden Lessiter examines the relationship between math and music theory. Finally, Bianca Caputo looks at voter behavior, media influence, and the numbers behind political engagement.
