Ep. 6: "My Dorm Is My Classroom" with Carmen & LaShawndra
<p>For our sixth and final conversation, we are joined by two CPS alumni, Carmen and LaShawndra, who recently graduated from Johnson College Prep, a Noble Charter Network high school in Englewood. Both students left Chicago in August to embark on their college journeys: Carmen at the University of Illinois, a large public institution, and LaShawndra at Albion, a small liberal arts college in rural Michigan. During the conversation, they offer us a look into the widely varying rules and policies that colleges have imposed to keep students and surrounding communities safe. They also speak to the impact of these rules and policies on their mental health and their ability to build a support system on campus.</p> <p>Visit the episode page: <a href="https://toandthrough.uchicago.edu/story/experts-experience-episode-6">https://toandthrough.uchicago.edu/story/experts-experience-episode-6</a></p>

Ep. 5: "When You're a DREAMer" with Sherelin & Yessenia
<p>For our fifth conversation, we are joined by Sherelin and Yessenia, two CPS alumni who are currently enrolled in Roosevelt University and Dominican University. We focus on how they navigate their campuses as DACA students and their ideas about how colleges can better act as allies for DACA recipients and undocumented students. Check out the episode to learn more about what DACA is and how the Supreme Court's recent decision regarding DACA has impacted students' college persistence journeys.</p> <p>To donate to Dominican University's emergency fund for DACA students or Undocumented and Immigrant Allyance, visit the university's <a href="https://connect.dom.edu/student-relief" target="_blank"><strong>Student Relief Fund webpage</strong></a>. In the "Comments" section, please write where you would like your donation to go: "for SFIRE/DACA renewals" or "for the Undocumented and Immigrant Allyance." Funds which go to the former are directly given to students who apply for emergency grants, and funds which go to the latter are used for Undocumented and Immigrant Allyance's campus fundraising events.</p>

Ep. 4: "Clapping Back" with Guillermo & Jameelah
<p>For our fourth conversation, we are joined again by two CPS alumni, Guillermo and Jameelah, who graduated this spring from Stanford University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. As in Episode 3, the topic of this conversation with Guillermo and Jameelah is different from our past topics. While Experts by Experience is primarily focused on how CPS alumni are navigating college during the COVID-19 pandemic, to truly recognize their experiences, we must also seek to understand how the pandemic has exacerbated existing structures that perpetuate inequalities and racism. Accordingly, this episode is dedicated to Guillermo and Jameelah's reflections on the Class of 2020's college journey, beginning with the 2016 presidential election and ending with nationwide protests against racial violence and injustice, as well as the need for universities to design and implement actively anti-racist policies.</p>
