Welcome back to the Finding Your Place podcast - a series about the college experience made by college students for college students.
Where are they now? In this follow-up episode, we re-connect with FYP producers Emily, Ana, Monte and Tanita to see what's happened for each of them since finishing their work on the podcast project. They also offer listeners some additional advice about how to survive the college bumps and barriers on the way to graduation.

Finding Your Place: Exploring the Value of Gen Eds (Episode 7)
Welcome to the Finding Your Place podcast - a series about the college experience made by college students for college students.
In this episode, we dare to ask a question that many of you are wondering about: why do you have to take all of these general education courses? Our producer team chats about the good and bad of their gen ed experiences, and then Producer Monte Brown reflects on a general education course that ended up having a huge impact on the way he saw himself as an African-American man and a scholar.
