1: Special Students
In our first episode, we examine a small piece of the long, complex history of women at Penn. We begin by looking closely at times of protest and change in the 70s and 80s through the lens of the women who lived through it, some of whom were the most prominent activists on campus. Switching gears to the present, we hear from current students on how most things on campus have changed, while others remain the same.Hosted by Lauren Sorantino, Virginia Rodowsky and Claire Schmidt.
