On today's episode I speak with Dr. Felipe Filomeno, Associate Professor of Political Science and Associate Director of the Center for Social Science Scholarship (CS3) at UMBC. We discuss Dr. Filomeno's approach to research through a discussion of community-engaged scholarship and his forthcoming book. On today's Campus Connection, we hear about the CoLab program at UMBC, and Dr. Filomeno's recent CoLab course on immigration.
