    S2. Ep. 3: Sexual Assault on Campus

    Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is trying to change an Obama-era policy concerning  Title IX with the belief the policies were overreaching and the accused were not given equal treatment. We brought on Lara Bazelon, an associate professor at the University of San Francisco, to explain why she supports DeVos' policy changes, and why colleges are not equipped with handling sexual assault cases. More of Bazelon's work can be viewed http://larabazelon.squarespace.com/overview.

    Fake news has become a buzzword of sorts. This episode of Trump 101 dives into the middle of it. We show college students fake news stories to see if they can sniff out fact from fiction. We had Teresa Moore--a journalism professor, former San Francisco Chronicle reporter, and all-around news expert--help us break it all down.

    Ep. 2: Story from Damascus, Syria

    Julia Aziz is a junior business major at the University of San Francisco (USF). She was born in the United States, then moved to Damascus, Syria at two years old. While Julia, her father, and her sister have joint U.S.-Syrian citizenship, her mother and brother are citizens of only Syria. On March 6, 2017, President Trump signed a newly revised executive order, which still prohibits the entry of Syrian refugees. Upon graduating from USF, Julia hopes to return to Syria if she can use the skills she has learned as an undergraduate to improve the country and create change.

    Darwin Velasquez is a senior at the University of San Francisco and originally from El Salvador. His family left El Salvador when Darwin was 12, fleeing gang violence. Darwin is one of the 860,000 people using the Obama-issued Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to stay in the US. Darwin's future in the US now depends on President Trump. President Trump campaigned on retracting DACA, but has since softened his tone towards DACA recipients. Darwin is still unsure of what he will do when he graduates in December.
