Women's History Month Spotlight with Dr. Megan McGregor, Professor of US History
In this episode of the ACC Honors Podcast, we interviewed Dr. Megan McGregor in March for Women's History Month. Listen along as we discuss the importance of incorporating diversity into class discussion, women role models and celebrating women throughout U.S. history.
Dr. McGregor and her husband love to travel, hike, and explore new places – and they always find themselves at the history or art museums, where she is most likely found gazing at works of impressionism or art nouveau. At home, Dr. McGregor likes to tend to her cactus garden, collect Pop! Funko vinyls of fun and strong female characters (her favorite is Velma from Scooby Doo), and of course spoil her two cats, Quinn and Ellie.
