In our introductory episode<\/i><\/a> we talk about our goals for this podcast as well as some topics we hope to cover in future episodes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Providing a space for conversations on issues specific to faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hosts: Dr. Rucha Ambikar, Associate Professor of Sociology & Anthropology, Dr. Daniel Guentchev, Associate Professor of Philosophy<\/p>\n\n\n\n Produced by: Tammy Bobrowsky, Library<\/p>\n\n\n\n Music: spacedust<\/i><\/a> by airtone (c) copyright 2022 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Episode 2 of Ruminations<\/i><\/a> speaks to the timely issue of how faculty respond to incidents in the classroom or on campus, which directly affect our students.

So, how do we bridge this gap between what we think the role of liberal education plays in the university and beyond (in the lives of free citizens) versus its role according to what students think?
