Gene Grant explores UNM’s return to campus without a vaccination requirement. The administration hopes for 100 percent vaccination, but for now won’t force the issue. UNM Communications and Marketing chief Cinnamon Blair talks about “Bringing Back the Pack.” Political Science Professor Gabe Sanchez also joins the conversation to offer insight on why certain groups aren’t likely to seek the coronavirus vaccine on their own.
Senior producer Matt Grubs speaks with Navajo journalist Sunnie Clahchischiligi, whose recent reporting for Searchlight New Mexico’s Heading Home series explores the sometimes jaw-dropping challenges that faced Native students as they tried to navigate distance learning in a part of the state without widespread, reliable broadband service.
