Episode Synopsis

Our students don’t study or perform research in a vacuum; current events deeply impact them. In this episode, Professor Venugopal Mukku in the Department of Math, Science, and Technology at the University of Minnesota Crookston speaks with students about the impacts of George Floyd’s death and the subsequent murder trial on themselves and their college experiences. To allow the students to explore their thinking without fear of retribution, the students are not named.
